Gulfstream Pic

Hey Suff,

Best I can tell, looks like you're havin' a good time down there at Gulfstream.

I spent some time down there a couple of years ago . . . is that Tack Shop still there? It's located in the north parking lot, just outside of the rail as they turn for home, kinda near (east of) that big Pegasus statue. Near where they school em' from the gate in the mornings. They've got a lot of nice Suff in there - bought a nice tack shop hat.

And I haven't seen a picture of those thatch hut Tiki Bars . . . they were on the north and south end as you walk south from the Tack Shop - had sand and everything. Are they still there?

Anyways, keep on havin' fun and keep sending pics . . . pretty please w/sugar on top, include more pics of Courtney

I'm living the dream. I play hobby money but haven't made a deposit for 10 straight cards.

Still there, looks the same out-of-place florida, next to racing office, next is main back-side entrance followed by dorms. There's back side people kicking the ball around, fixing cars, & socializing in and around there 24/7.

The one on the home turn is gone, reduced to a bench , the new LIV stretch ate that one up. But the one on the other end is still there. I walk down there twice a day at exactly 4:20. The regulars normally drag furniture into the trees. Pegasus day Gulfstream dragged it out and put it back. Security cramped me up!

Anyways, keep on havin' fun and keep sending pics . . . pretty please w/sugar on top, include more pics of Courtney

I think I'm enjoying every minute of it. I'm trying to mentally log the joyful nature of it. Life has its ebbs and flows.

The name on the front, Ed Cohen, this is Ed.







This is how I get around.


This is Dale Gall. He's popular around Gulfstream, known as Rusty. He did the painting and art work on the building. Including this life-size 8 horse field on the side of a container. He won a breeders cup as groom in 2009 with She Be Wild. Also the 2010 Eclipse with the same horse.

Pegasus Day is like when your Mom cleans your room and afterwards you put shit back where you like it. This is my off-topic area.

Its a 1st turn view up this end.

Wow . . . thanks Suff, sure brings back some good ol' memories of bein' at the track .

I remember hangin' out in Cohen's Shop for quite some time . . . chattin' w/him, lookin' at stuff, getting a feel for the different crops and just being there when a few jockeys and jockey's agents would pass thru, it was fascinating just listenin' to em' and what they had to say and fun to watch em' mount that horse simulator and show how its done.

Sure do miss hangin' out down there in south Florida, drivin' thru Alligator Alley, watchin' the sunrise and sunset . . . Thanks again Suff for the pics and keep em' comin'. Lookin' forward to the pics from the Holy Bull, Fountain of Youth and the Florida Derby!

Good crowd down here for a non-weekend. This is becoming and may soon be more like a clubhouse w/separate admission. The rocking chairs, high quality surroundings. I enjoy playing here.



Another beautiful day at the track.

Hey Suff,

Now don’t you lie to me . . . aren’t you getting bored to death down there in South Florida livin’ it up in that high rise Penthouse on the beach, drivin’ around in a Maserati and hangin’ out hob nobbin w/folks at the track all day? Aren’t you just getting’ tired and bored with all of all that livin’ the dream stuff? Just askin’ . . . have fun this weekend at the Holy Bull Stakes.

It doesn't suck.

Awesome pictures, though shirtless Suff was pretty low on my "things I need to ever see" list...
