Not that I want to get TOO far away from the dinner table, and those that know what I look like know I never get THAT far away, I was wondering if anyone would care to spend a evening with me and the Saratoga ponies. Junior's college fund needs a shot in the arm, daddy needs a new pair of slippers and my gas tank is empty again!

I think the pony park does not open until a week after the Jam is over. Otherwise I would accompany you and help "feed the Horses" At least that's what my mother would tell me when i ask where dad was. Oh, he is out feeding the horses.......at my tender young age it took me a few minutes to realize what she really meant.
I am SO excited to get to attend the Vintage Trailer Jam in Saratoga!!!! What an amazing learning opportunity this is
Six years ago we moved from Greenwich, which is about 25 mins east of this location. My guys are gonna have a blast exploring the area, as kiddo was 9 when we left there. I plan on absorbing all that I can about all things vintage

Perhaps I should have defined "ponies" a little better.
Harness racinggoes on year round at Saratoga.
Trotters race at the Saratoga Raceway, aka the "Racino,"
which is different from the Racetrack (only open for 6 weeks, late July thru Labor Day).
The Racetrack is where the thoroughbreds run.
The Racino is also where Saratoga's casino and nightclub are located.
The Racetrack (which opened only a month after Gettysburg) is absolutely gorgeous and definitely worth a visit (or two or five ).
The Raceway (1941) is just down the road a bit from it's more famous cousin.
So, you up for an evening of feeding the harness horseys?
I am sorry, I am somewhat slow on the up take... you are or are not coming?
I am not bringing pie, I am baking it fresh on the spot. A berry pie is no problem. So now I have three to make. A berry pie, a peach pie, and a coconut creme. This is going to one hell of a good time. Hope Colin and Steve will join Rich for a slice.
From reading his post, it seems 2airishuman will not be attending. In that case, could you substitute rhubarb pie for his request for berry pie?

This is so cool!
I too am very very excited and looking forward to this event. I can't wait to see all the different campers, both AS and SOB.

For Mrs. America? Of course, rhubarb, or rhubarb and strawberry? How about rhubarb and blueberry? My wife loves that combination. If 2air is not going to make a commitment, than you will be his fill in. Straight up rhubarb was my grandfathers favorite and very high up on the list for me. I hope others will also step up and put their vintage oven to the task.
Although I prefer Pumpkin Praline or Chocolate Cream
Both of which I bake quite well, but neither of which would be very easy in my Argy, in July, with no AC. I'll stick to grillin' and sipping adult beverages.
Our trailer's name is Spirit. So I will get in "Spirit" and make a pie or two. We will shop for fresh ingredients along our way from Richmond to Saratoga Springs.
Are you ready for pie smackdown??
