Mornin, What's left of it.. Kentucky Derby Day..Pick 4 horses any four horses box them in a Superfecta, box the same four in a 4 horse Trifecta.. Anybody can win, and I mean anybody.. This may be the most wide open Derby I have seen since Barbaro went off at a 7-1 favorite.. It could be a huge Super and Tri..Me I'm just going with a 1-2-4-7 a 48.00 investment if I hit I get half. I may make it 96.00 by the time I bet then I would get the whole thing.. Good luck to any of my friends, visitors, citizens of the Ville that bet this baby today. It would be a nice payday..Gotta get ready to roll out of the Pines.. OTB to bet.. and then onto a Communion Party.. Think I am drivin so I gotta lay off the Vodka. If I am not drivin it is a belated VODKADAY. Hey throw some of your favorite Kentucky Derby memories or anything to do with Kentucky out here today.. You know like why do those woman wear them crazy hats, although they do make the day look fashionable..To all the bettors go get them and lets get Kentucky..
"My Old Kentucky Hone" I do love it when they play that as the horses come onto the track..
"Bombay Duck" Runnin the fastest six furlongs in Kentucky Derby History, then gets smoked with a beer can. Unbelievable..
"Me winnin with Dancers Image with a bookie. The only reason I bet Dancers Image was his Sire was Native Dancer and The Kentucky Derby was the only race he never won.. Sure enough Dancers Image won it the bookie paid me, and Monday they disqualified him.. The bookie never saw me again.. I think I was hidin in Key West.. It was somewhere back in the sixties..Great memories...HA!!

Happy Kentucky Derby Day! Always remember it being a fun day in the family. We used to write the horses names on a piece of paper and then draw them out of a hat. Someone would wind up winning $10. or so and we felt like it was a million.
Festive hats
Mint Juleps
Kentucky Bluegrass (which is actually green)
Frankfurt, capitol of Kentucky
And they're off....................
Well it was exciting and a Traditional Day of Spring. My horses are still running nad hope the horse that pulled up lame is OK. Had my hat on and all...no luck.....Sammy and Greeny alone again......hope they are OK partying in the Pines un-chaperoned. Hope they don't run into the Goat.........Simple will have a mess when he gets home.
It seems everyone was M.I.A. today except for J. Mc and me. Hope you all had a great day. Simple did the original post and nothing all day from Plain. Where are they?
Big day tomorrow for the Moms. If your Mom is still with you treasure them as Mom's Day is a tough one for those of us that no longer can wish our Moms a Happy Mother's day but the wishes that come my way from my children and grandchildren are priceless. Have a great Sunday!
Day is done,
gone the sun,
from the lakes,
from the hills,
from the sky,
All is well,
safely rest,
God is nigh.
