Caleb is in Abu Dhabi this week racing. That’s him in second place closing in on the lead.
ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Not long after sunrise one recent morning, a camel race here began, as they all do, with two starts.

I’ve been to Dubai – and watched the camel races – briefly. Very strange to see camels racing I must say…

Far more remains undone and unseen than done and observed – but I traveled A LOT for the firm. Remember the George Clooney film where he plays a guy who has a million air miles? That’s me. My United status has a lifetime protection – and I rarely go anywhere anymore.
