Starting a racy month

The Kentucky Derby will be run soon. It's fun to have the familiarity of having recently been there. I didn't include this photo of the twin spires but, when Greg and I went to Bristol in April, we stopped by to see the track. It was quiet that day but it wasn't too hard to envision the massive crowd that has formed for today's running.

It's an exciting month for special races. I've also set the countdown timer in the left margin for the 91st Indianapolis 500. The OneAmerica 500 Festival Mini-Marathon opened the festivities in Indianapolis this morning. Activities at the Brickyard begin tomorrow with A.J. Foyt Opening Day presented by the Indianapolis Star.
