When Boredom Strikes

The Kentucky Derby may be postponed for months and there may be no racing at the speedway, much to the boss's disappointment. However, there is still the fun of watching  buggies crammed with Amish kids drag racing home from church, over the blind hills on Pavlus Road. There were three in one batch and a few high-steppers soon to follow. The lead horse was going at a dead gallop, head stretched out and legs gathering the ground like a Pony Express horse. The other two were on a high pounding trot that would have shamed their former classmates at Saratoga harness track. Try as they might they could not catch up with that fat old galloper though.

It was a little scary....did I mention blind hills....but it sure was exciting.

And those kids were sure having fun. I never saw such grins.
