The Day I Became a Gambler

30May2004 - First time I go to the race course. It's no good to be there just shooting pictures and so I randomly bet $30, my first bet on horse, which of course resulted in a total lost. Well the pictures worth more than that. I surely will go again when next season opens again.

20Jun2004 - Well, I guess I can't wait until next season. Today is the last day of this season and I need to grab the chance.
30May2004 - My first view of the race course. Wonderful.
