The Baseball Trip 2024

Day 11 - Friday June 14

First, breakfast at Maddie's:

Today is not as jam-packed as yesterday. As a matter of fact, it was mostly travel. We left Hartford (and the Yard Goats) and - against our better judgement - drove back into Long Island. The reason: we wanted to visit Aqueduct Race Course before it closed.

Here are a few pix:

Front entrance.

Paddock area.

Tote board.

I bet a couple of races, but nothin' doing.

After that, we headed to Buffalo, NY,  but stopped for the night in Scranton, PA.
