Our racing family started the great racing season out in Florida for all the races there and hit some of the races in between all the rain outs. We closed out our racing season with going to Arizona for the finals and we stayed a couple days after and went to do some site seeing. We had an another great year and we definitely made some great Kodak moments and life time memories together again. Looking forward to seeing everyone again next racing season and Robert Ballou will be back in house soon for all the great racing events. Everyone have a great holiday season with thanksgiving and Christmas. God bless America and don’t forget to yell go blu the next time you’re at the races. Thanks.

83 so far with 5 to go yet
