Linda invited us to the farm for a little Derby get-together, so we loaded up the broccoli salad and the mint juleps and hit the road.
We drew Big Brown (and three others) in the $1-a-pick game, which was great fun for a few minutes, 'til we saw what had happened to Eight Belles. That poor girl tried so hard.
I know you're not surprised that I didn't remember to take the camera to the party, so the picture is of our current water garden. We hope our fish will be as happy in his new home.

Janie and I came up to Lexington for a big Derby party this weekend, and I ended up winning $34 on Eight Belles.
Hated to cash it, but I wasn't going to leave money on the table.
I'm still thinking we should donate our paltry $20 winnings to the Barbaro Fund or the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation, something like that. Poor Eight Belles.
