Derbyriffic in NYC

Well, not everyone can be as shining an example as The Colonel himself...but if there is one thing we have in common, it's to enjoy a fine specimen of equine gallantry. I am, of course, speaking of The 134th annual Kentucky Derby, not biscuits and Cole Slaw, lest you should be confused.

One can, however, invite a few fine folks over to celebrate the big day at Churchill Downs with Mint Juleps, Derby Pie and maybe an itsy-bitsy wee little betting pool...well, we ARE from Nevada, you know. We put a warning against the evils of gambling here for you kids to read...

My bride, not a Kentuckian by nature, decided to christen our first NYC Derby Day by inviting friends over for cordials. As you can see in this photo, she is about to serve up our interpretation of the state beverage...not that alot of hard research was conducted. When in Rome and all that...

Our neighbors arrived looking mighty "Rico Suave" for the occasion...perfect!

And, here is the rest of the party, conducting themselves in ways becoming of young Southern Genteel folk...

Even The Dudes joined in the fun...

A grand time was indeed had by all; wish you could have joined us! Salutations from your hostess...

  1. You would not have to give me too much Kentuckee Bourbon to get excited about that hot hostess and her sweet head dress!!!
