for a timely article for us Kentuckians! We certainly do love this time of year. The flowers are blooming, the horses are running and there is a festive mood in the air.

Yay ! I met my husband at the Kentucky Derby and I moved here in 1994. This is very special time of year here and the state of Kentucky is gorgeous--all times of the year. I moved here from Michigan and I think I gained 6 weeks of growing time at each of the season. Therefore, I've become a much better gardener. Around here, you can find julep cups in antique stores, etc. and I use the one that got when my best friend from Alaska was here visiting (there were two in the store so we each got one as a remembrance) for a really lovely vase. Thank you for spreading the word...you always have GREAT articles.

Thanks! Derby Day is special to me, too, although I've only cheered from the couch in front of the TV rather than from the stands!
