Best of the Bluegrass
 Lexington KY

Kentucky Festivals in Full Swing for Spring



It is a beautiful Friday morning here in Kentucky with the red buds singing the melodies of spring. Across the Commonwealth, it is festival time. I have mentioned in previous posts, Louisville's Kentucky Derby Festival and the upcoming Hillbilly Days festival in Pikeville.


Today, it's all about "MY University" town, Lexington, KY.(GO BIG BLUE!)


Best of the Bluegrass Festival April 10 - 12 Lexington KY
Check out Best of Bluegrass website



It started yesterday, with a Bed Race and will end Saturday with the running of the 84th Bluegrass Stakes at Keeneland sponsored by Toyota. In between there is more Thoroughbred racing at Keeneland including the Makers Mark Mile, a 5K run for us two feeted folks, LexJam down at the ArtsPlace, and even a celebration at Henry Clay's Ashland for the illustrious orator's 231st birthday.



Alas, I cannot join the festivities but my spirit is with y'all. Enjoy the fun! Send me some burgoo and bread pudding!
