Being thankful in tough times

You know folks, Thanksgiving is a special time of year. We get to spend it with family and friends plus give thanks for all the blessings that we have in this country.

I know it's easy to be grateful when things are going well and running smoothly. But next year, it looks like it's going to be really tough both across the county and in racing. We are facing difficult times not only in this country but elsewhere in the world — there seem to be tremendous challenges all over the place.
