(Growing up I had a friend whose Dad had ponies down at Del Mar so I got used to the "racing life" young; you're on for Santa Anita next time we're in Cali). <br /><br />More on topic, I believe Tennyson compared Ys to Atlantis in one of his poems. I think Poe may have mentioned Ys in his poetry as well, but you would surely know that better than I.<br /><br />And Charles, yep; a lot of similar mythology there.Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11730716060906158244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6880727956547669971.post-73146794252480862642011-01-07T04:02:03.990-09:002011-01-07T04:02:03.990-09:00Atlant Ys? :-)Atlant Ys? :-)Charles L.

It reminds me a bit of the legend of Atlantis.<br /><br />As a off-topic note--Pauline, thanks for the instuctions about mojo bags. While I won't say those people who just won the Mega-Millions are envying me right now, considering that my trips home from the racetrack usually resemble Napoleon's retreat from Moscow, things have been going pretty well for me.<br /><br />If you're ever at Santa Anita, lunch is on me.Undinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16214242522330278662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6880727956547669971.post-14212285981971865542011-01-06T18:12:11.641-09:002011-01-06T18:12:11.641-09:00I know, huh?
