Time for a new type of post on our little blog. A photo essay. Yeah, it's the sort of project that you'd get assigned in 5th grade, but so what? It's still fun.
Oh hey, look at that. It's our first view of Churchill Downs, and it's through the rain that pretty much dominated the day.
Here's the view from our seats. Pretty good stuff, we lucked out. We didn't wind up sitting in them all day; instead we sought out shelter from the weather.
Mint Juleps! They were delicious.
We were pretty glad that we weren't in the infield on Saturday.
But then this happened. Yup, the sun came out, just in time for the big race. Funny how life works sometimes.
I wish I had an actual picture of the race, because the horses thundering by was pretty amazing, but I was too busy watching them go by to take a picture. All in all, a fantastic day, and a great experience!
