red rover red rover send october on over!



I scream summer.
Everything about me screams summer.
boo to wearing socks.
YAY TO GOING BAREFOOT.
boo coldness.
YAY HOTNESS.

But every cloud has a silver lining.
and Kentucky turning a wee bit colder has a silver one called KEENELAND. Keeneland is both a world renowned race track and the world's most prestigious Thoroughbred auction company.
This week I got oh so excited when I realized that I get to wear my Ralph Lauren Ginnie Silk Sash Riding Blouse (say that fives times fast!) that I purchased in Chicago many moons ago (this past August) in less than two weeks when I go to Keeneland. Wow, that last sentence was most definitely a run-on sentence. Jeepers Creepers. It doesn't matter though. Why? Because it's Keeneland season and all is well in the bluegrass!!

You do scream summer. Remember when I was breaking a sweat in your car because you wanted the heat on in the spring. whew.

While watching the UK game (cheering on the Tide) they popped up a shot of Keeneland...a million "What's that Alice?" questions flooded, I responded, "You weren't priviledged to grow up in Kentucky were you?" (Not really, but I was thinking that!)
