derby day

i don't know a thing about horse racing, and i've never been to a kentucky derby party before, but i absolutely loved being a part of the scene at portland meadows yesterday! it was a fabulous excuse to put on a dress and a silly hat and soak up the perfect weather whilst day-drinking with friends.  and really, who could ask for more?
our friend rebecca celebrates her birthday each year at derby time, and also happens to know more about horses than anyone i know.
bec, sorry your horse didn't win, but we had a great time anyway!
