It’s not the size…

of the sword, but what you do with it….

C and I are heading out for lunch with some friends, but he’s promised me we’ll be back in time for the Derby tonight. Have to watch it. It’s been a traditional in my family for as long as I can remember…picking which horse will win (never the favorite because of the curse..lol) and cheering like mad when the horses power in to the homestretch. Maybe this year we’ll get a sub-two minute race. There’s only been two in the history of the Derby..Monarchos in 2001 and of course..Secretariat in 1973. He set the stakes record that day and no horse has been able to match his brilliance and chrisma.

Each year I watch, hoping there’ll be another Secretariat in the field. Another horse who will become larger than life. 🙂 Maybe this is the year.

Have a great day, everyone.

    Hope you made it home in time for the Derby.

    Personally, I was pulling for Deputy Glitters but, alas, it wasn’t his year. And really, I just watch for the hats anyway.
