Made me laugh Cal, that "t" jumped ship to the next word, but I like the idea. If there's not a few typos and mispelled words in my posts, it must have come from a spamer, not me.

Sounds like it should be a thing at maybe Lonestar Park or Sam Houston Racetrack.

YES!!! Been to both of them and Lone Star is pretty close to where I live but have not been here for at least 2 years with so much going on with my wife and I'm not sure I feel like going there without her.

I know what you are talking about. My wife passed in 2017. My activities have been severely curtailed ever since. Of course, after that happened, then Covid came along and then my Grandkids are all grown up now and they no longer need me to be the Soccer Grandpa/Chauffeur. I am now like a hunk of moldy cheese in the refrigerator that needs to be thrown out, but I'm getting a bit tired of the feeling and I think I hear the siren song of Vegas playing so I'm thinking I may have to take a trip maybe at the end of the Summer. Vegas is a place that is always re-inventing itself, so I'm sure there will be plenty of new things to see.
