Busy Saturday
Had one of those great, full days yesterday. Kelly had a 6:30am water polo practice which got most all of us up early. After her practice she was back home to change and getting ready to go the HERS Breast Cancer Walk out at Coyote hills with her bud Stephanie. Barb and I went on a 18 mile bike ride out to the end of Alameda Creek Trail and back. The trail was a bit crowded because the local Team in Training was out on a run preparing for an October marathon in the city.
After the ride it was back home to get ready for a day at Bay Meadows with the boys. Shull, Lewellyen and I had passes, thanks to our friend Richard who is a VP out at the track. We got a great table in the clubhouse, bet the races, had a couple of cocktails, ate lunch, watched the Giants beat the Dodgers on Pedro Feliz’s Grand Salami!! WOOHOO!! Richard even gave us some cool gifts! Nice set of Bay Meadows coffee cups for each of us. He’s a great guy, thanks Richard. I usually reserve about $40 to bet on the races. I was having an up and down day and by the 9th race I was down to my last $10. Hit a nice little exacta and won $30 back ending up the day only $10 down. Not bad at all! All in all Great day at the track with the boys.
While the boys were are the races, the girls were at the mall. Shopping for homecoming dance dresses for Kate and Nicole.
Then it was back to Shull House (the east bays premier dining experiance) for cocktails and a “South Beach” dinner of steak, salmon, salad and vegies. YUMMY YUM YUM YUM. Really hit the spot. Had a nice visit with Al and Deb. We don’t see them as much as we should. We always have a good time with them.
Talk about getting the most out of a weekend day! We sure did!
