Derby

Two years ago I went to the Kentucky Derby for the first time.  I made a five dollar exacta box bet with Yep, I'll Have Another and 2 other horses, I can't even remember their names.  I had no idea what I was doing when the teller told me I owed her $30 for the bet.  What?!  I thought it was only $5.  Anyway, I paid because I was too embarrassed to ask what I did wrong.  I ended up winning $766.50. I've learned a lot about betting since then and this year I went to the Oaks AND Derby.

On Friday, first, I met Mr. Louisville's Italian BF!
Then it was off to the Oaks with Diva B and his fiance, Heather.
It was FREEZING but we had a good time.
Saturday, Mr. L and I were at it again and made it to the track before noon. We had a sweet set-up with a co-worker of his and some others in the Paddock and it was a perfect day!  Didn't win big like I did a few years ago but it was definitely more fun.

Derby fun had by all!  How about you?

At Derby!  I had quite a few of these guys.
Mr. Louisville, me and BF Casey before Oaks.

Mr. Louisville and I. OMG.  That stache...
