So many fond memories, but of course, the Travers Stakes weekend was my favorite. Mike was sure he could help me pick a winner! When the horse that was expected to win, basically seemed to stop and wave to the crowd instead of crossing the finish line well ahead of the rest, I thought Mike was going to kill me. He stated I was not allowed back at a Travers Stakes again, I was a jinx! That evening eating in downtown Saratoga, we were watching a horse and carriage cross the crosswalk when Rick said, "hey Sally, your horse just crossed the finish line"! Thank god that happened back then, if it happened today I would need depends! LOL I have had so many fond memories of the cousins over the years, I miss Norm and Mike already! I didn't see them for months at a time, but knew I could pick up with them where we left off. When I was a kid, I stayed with them in Elmira for a week and hung out with Cindee, I think the boys were at ballgames or the pool the entire week. But when dinner time came, and their father was home, back they came. Good Times!
