Sunday, Dear Husband is giving up a day on the water to take Elegante Mother and me to the races. We have never been to Arlington Park Race Track in Arlington Heights. Actually, I've never been to any kind of horse race. I've never bet on the ponies, so this will be a new experience for me.
I downloaded some information on betting, and realized right away that we will be confining our betting to "Win, Place or Show" bets. And, we will most likely be making very small wagers, given that we know nothing about the horses or the condition of the track.
Basically, we're going to have a great afternoon, doing something new. I'm encouraging Elegante Mother to wear one of her red hats! It will be like the Ascot races at Arlington. *G*
