The Track

I did something today that I have wanted to do for years. I went to Historic Saratoga Racecourse for the Clubhouse Breakfast. It was great.
I pictured a few people sitting having breakfast and watching the horses workout on the track, a peaceful atmosphere, a leisurly cup of coffee after.
It was not like that, there must have been 500 people there, lots of kids, and lots of noise. I was not disappointed, it was a good experience with friends and I would do it again.

Feeling better now

I feel better about living in the Adirondacks after today. I have worried about my heating system for several years, it was noisy, started hard, (with a big boom) and kept me on pins and needles when I went away. I won't have to worry about that anymore, I put a new furnace in today. It hardly makes a sound so it won't keep me awake at night like the old one did. It won't make me worry if it will continue to run when the temp gets down to zero and below.
I think the winter will be different this year. I think I may enjoy it more.
