Anyone who is coming in and wanting to go to the races on Wednesday, Thursday, or Sunday and wants to save on admission money shoot me a PM. I have several free admissions. It won't save you much but it's enough to buy you a soda or cheese fries.

Why don't many photographers use Pocket WIzards for their remotes? I'm just curious, because we never use a trigger for our shoots.

Anyway, I can't go because I have to work the Special Olympics of Pennsylvania, as well as some Villanova sports...but I will be in Kentucky the following Wednesday evening through Sunday!

I have come into some free tickets and am now interested in selling the seats I purchased. They're $215 each, Saturday only, on level 3 under cover.

Any takers? Make an offer!

I have to admit that Shared Account winning the F/M Turf made it almost ok that I didnt get to go! I was jumping up and down, screaming and crying as they hit the wire! And she looks just like her daddy too. I heart him so!!!

Sad. I was there all day. I saw Lauren and Eric several times too.

It was certainly crowded though! You had to really push your way to the rail.

i went down before the first breeders cup race figuring it would get pretty crazy as the day progressed. i think the biggest issue is that i didn't know what people looked like. i was looking for Mike, but based on the pictures he put on facebook he wasn't standing there.

I do not or else trust me I would have been making you kidnap me and take me to dinner. Even though the other drama of the weekend was the fact that i forgot my phone charger and hadn't charged my phone in a week so it wasn't exactly at its best. Plust I wore my brand new sim shirt, but was to cold to take off my jacket adn show it off. I was just an epic fail.

Had a fantastic time. Met many, many great people. And wish our get-togethers could happen more than once a year. So, anyone that wants to come to the Oaklawn winter/spring meet needs to shoot me a message!

Had a great time at Kentucky Horse Park, Mr. Xett's pizza party, Phoenix Hill, Churchill Downs (paddock and winner's circle!), 4th Street Live, Sim Dinner, hot tub, Steak N Shake, IHOP, Winstar, and Lane's End. What did I forget? OH, and the airport a few times!

Many thanks to all the wonderful people who made this trip a 'bold drive' to the wire. It was a blast.....
