I was born in Kentucky and the first Saturday in May is always Derby Day. I am writing this post as My Old Kentucky Home is being sung at this year's Derby.
Just as Papa and I were going through the gate, heading out on a hike this morning, Hank snorted and came to get a hug. Not far away were Oscar and Pablo, who came up the hill for hugs too. Oscar, Pablo, and Hank aren't thoroughbreds, and not Derby material, but they are our best ranch horses.
