We all arrived safely in Kentucky.
Rick managed the trip quite well riding shot gun.
We are staying in a beautiful log home on a large property with lots of room for the kids to play bag toss and horseshoes.
There have been a few competitive games of marbles and 3/13 played. The prize for winning was decided and after the game concluded the winner was....me! Now everyone has to buy me a drink at Churchill Downs today! ......oh boy!
Rick's long shot pick for the derby is Creator
The horse he thinks will win is Mohaymem.
We are heading to the track shortly, after photographer Rick takes all our pictures. It is a beautiful spring day here and is supposed to be 28 degrees. I think there will be plenty of mint juleps consumed!!!!
I will send photos later
Go CREATOR! Go! AM SO EXCITED you are there...held my breath that you would all make it for this Bucket List Dream!!!. God is SO GOOD! Blessings my dear Stefflers. Happy Mother's Day, Rick! LOL! Oh guess what, after Josh's Meet at Parkside where we saw Pat Moran and Mrs. Farquarson yesterday, down the John Wise road a couple of km we followed a km hike thru woods, farmer's fields, up and down a steep ravine, over a "Troll" Bridge and to a huge Eagle's nest...saw mama and papa and Beck saw 2 babies...A special moment. Got some great shots of the regal birds. Enjoy this beautiful gift of a day, dear heart! Imagine...the Kentucky Derby! YEAH!
