DAY 119: DERBY HEAVEN!

 I have somehow gotten these pictures out of order. This was supposed to be the last in the series. We were back at my sister and brother-in-law's house after Derby 2004, and my husband and I had just prepared the after-derby feast of Thai Shrimp Curry! Yummy! My daughter did not approve of my Derby Hat. She thought I looked like I belonged working in a rice paddy. Oh well.   

Everything seemed to go well that day. We breezed right into the Derby with no problem and had seats under cover, so we didn't get wet during the big rainfall of Derby 2004...

Here we are, getting our parking spot within walking distance of Churchill Downs. It was crazy how close we were.

 Walking in!

  My sister, Gail with a Derby artist....I love this picture. It is great printed out on canvas!!!

 Our box.... See that one seat there with no one in it? That was my seat! We had a great time!
