A Good Thing To Ponder On

A fun side note on our trip to Churchill Downs.  The Museum has a display where you can pull up the movies of all the Kentucky Derbies that were made.

In 1949 my grand parents went to the Kentucky Derby.

Running in that Derby was a long shot named "Ponder".

My grandmother's maiden name was "Ponder".

That's enough racing mojo to make a bet on!  ~LOL~  So she laid a $10 bet on the horse with her name.








... and Ponder came home!

A $2 bet made $34; Grandmother Doris came home with $170 AND bragging rights!
