    If only I weren’t hundreds of miles away, I would so be at this event. Have a great time — looking forward to reading your notes and impressions afterwards.

    I’m madly in love with Maggie Moss and she don’t even know who I am. She is a vision of lovliness when I see her at the local race track.
    And her horses win as well.
