One of the highlights of my trip, besides eating with friends, placing well at the show, and making plans for the future, was visiting Churchill Downs. We only took a quick trip, but I snapped a few photos to share.
This was one of the horses racing. I think it’s Heart Ashley, but I’m not [...]

Not blood sucking, nor soul sucking socks, they feed instead on spiders, cobwebs, and most commonly . . . moths. These desperately disturbed socks face the scourge of all socks head-on, and bite their heads off. No moth can [...]
