The Kentucky Derby

My, how quickly the time passes and what a difference a day makes. Unless one have been entirely without technology since 6PM last night(_{and if one has, and this is one's first cyber-stop, we are more flattered than we have words for}), one is aware of the death of Osama bin Laden. We are gladdened to hear of it, and our thoughts are with those who continue to combat terrorism across the globe.


We are amazed that, little more than a week ago, we hinted about an upcoming event of some significance. It seems ages since then- having been to Wisconsin for a funeral, then to Dallas, then back to Austin to host a brunch party of semi-gigantic proportions (_{thanks to those who came- it was a wonderful time, and a treat to see one and all}). Today, we are terribly excited to announce that, for the very first time in history, we will be attending The Kentucky Derby in lovely Louisville later this week.

The preparation has been only slightly short of epic; the anticipation has been entirely so. We look forward to the days ahead- hopefully filled with bourbon, food and frivolity. We plan on documenting the event as the week progresses (_{featuring pictures of notable outfits, distilleries, and any other thing we Must Have}). We will also be tweeting along the way- follow @aaroncglover on Twitter. And now, on to The Derby!
