Having spent the morning just lazing at the park, you decide that you want a little excitement in your life so you shuffle the kids off to Aunt Mary Lou's and grab your spouse.
An old Steven Foster song has been running through your head for the last few hours and you just have to act upon it!
De Campptown ladies sing this song,
Doo-da, Doo-da,
De Camptown racetrack's two miles long
Oh, de doo-da day
Going to run all night
Going to run all day
I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bet on the gray.
Ahhhh! An Afternoon at the Races! Just what the doctor ordered for your day off so, feeling lucky, you head to the racetrack!
Money in hand you have to decide. The Trifecta? The Daily Double? Win, Place or Show? Trying to take it all in, you look around! Betting windows, ladies with parasols, Men clutching racing forms, desperate to win, jockeys, beautiful horses, flowers, gaily colored pennants and, in your hand, the winning ticket????
They lead the prancing horses to the gate. You take your seat and the bell rings! They're off!!
