I, too, sometimes miss the way the Spa used to be; personal golden age ran from about '87-'99. But your quote reminded me of the drive home from this year's Travers, during which my about-to-turn 17 years old son, still jazzed about what he had witnessed, kept saying to me, "Dad, I'll never forget that as long as I live!"
