Day 8, 9, 10 - And it continues



St. Louis, MO > Duck Down Farms (Crestwood, KY) = 278 miles

We finally made it somewhere we where would get to relax a little bit.  Meaning we were still going 100 miles per hour, but we were in one place for a little bit, which was very nice.


Cute puppies ready to run for days.


Made it to Indiana!


This place was CRA CRA.  The food was delicious.  If you ever go to Louisville, this is a must.  And you must eat Lynn's Brown.


So eclectic 



Enjoying the beautiful Duck Down Farm and admiring the sunset


Happy bird dog


Love me some sunsets


Dad and Brian loving on some mint juleps.  We got to go to a party the night before.  She breeds horses, and the horse named Hansen was bred at her farm and was running in the derby the next day!  Brian and I were the youngest by 25 years.  Felt like we were in old Kentucky among old Kentucky money.  Crazy feeling.


Kitty cat



Day of the derby.  My mom is wearing a hot pink fascinator.  I didn't even know what those things were called until she pulled it out.  Ms Jenfer getting fancy.


Derby tickets.

YAY




It was so hot!


We got to meet this horse the day before along with Mrs. America and Mrs. Kentucky.  My uncle was taking care of Union Rags, and unfortunately Union Rags didn't place, but we love him anyway.


My mom has all the really good derby and horse pictures.  If you want to see them you should friend her on facebook.  Jennifer Foster!


Dad's sherpa


Kentucky wildflowers!  So vibrant!

The derby was awesome.  So happy that I had the opportunity to go again.  It really is a whirlwind, and this weekend crazy things kept happening over and over again.  We were in the right place at the right time.  That never happens to me.  It has to be because we were with Uncle Foster.


Total Mileage: 2,654
