The 2010
Preakness Stakes was Saturday, May 15th.
The night before Preakness the
Mt. Washington Tavern was buzzing with excitement.
Preakness morning we headed to
Dixie's Dad and Mom's for breakfast.
They even had fresh squeezed orange and grapefruit juice.
The next stop was Pimlico.
Vendors walk around selling
Black-Eyed Susans.
I prefer to get my Susans freshly made at a bar with an extra shot of Jack.
EAS & JCW
Zac Brown Band played in the infield. If you have not heard them listen to
Whatever It Is...it's one of my favorite songs.
JCW, Lawyer Liz's Beau, Tiz
Dixie's Dad and Mom with Mr. Maryland
We were all gearing up for the big race.
Lookin At Lucky takes it! The next day we went back to Pimlico to cash out JCW's winning ticket...he bet on Lucky to win.

Don't you love the races? It's a religion here in Kentucky - glad to see you guys had so much fun. And, you all look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteCute pictures! You and your boy always have the best outfits on! :) Have a fun weekend!
ReplyDelete$8.00 for a Black-eyed Susan?!?...well I guess it's OK since you get a souvenier glass..
ReplyDeleteNever been to the Preakness as it is always the same day as The Radnor Hunt Races...
You guys look like you did the day in style...
Impressed that JCW picked the winner!
That looks like so much fun. We went to the races last weekend for the first time and won a little. It was a blast. Never had a Black-Eyed Susan. Looks so refreshing. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the photo of they entire "gang." Darling!
Looks like a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteYou all look so cute in your dresses! It looks like you had a GREAT time :)
ReplyDeleteThe late Cohen Brothers, who used to own Pimlico Race Track, were surrogate Godparents of mine. I had a small trust fund from them that I blew in the first 2 weeks at Loyola on beer and Laura Ashley dresses :)
