A Day at the Races three tables of friends cheering under the sun quenching oor thirst swallowing the warm beer placing bets a bugle as the race begins moving without a fight disappearing into the sunlight third place, first place a winning race he has one the screaming of joy the slap of a high-five the sound of a winning ticket anxiously waiting for the next race a dark cloud rolls in breaking into a trot listening to every command stomping the earth in a stormy passion effortlessly and gracefully a cold feeling of raindrops his days work is done by Angie McCammack and Friends

Fair Memories bright lights flashing the sound of the ferris wheel going around and around           tattooed figures smoke in the shadows           break time smell of cotton candy a child’s wondering eyes savoring the taste           youngsters encircle the beer tent           patiently waiting for their only ride home one last ticket moving from line to line lights out           unexpected shower           rides frozen in time, dripping . . .           last day ruined Melanie Millikin & Angela McCammack
