This is a party weekend! Decor is so easy and fun. Tiny kids horses with numbers on them for everyone to choose in the betting process. Lots of mint for the ever popular but awful tasting, mint julep! I have had them at the Derby and at many a home, but truth be told, they really do not taste good. I believe people have them strictly for traditions sake...that is fine too. Whatever the weather in Louisville, when the cameras start to televise, the sun starts to shine through whatever clouds existed before...also tradition, just like the red roses the Derby winner is blanketed in when he is christened the winner!
For the long shots I am going with ICE BOX & SUPER SAVER and for the early look at the winner (its Thursday) LOOKIN AT LUCKY(but not a great post position.)
The weather is officially spring everywhere. Enjoy the weekend and the horses!
