    Greetings from Kentucky!!

    Hello! Ma (ACGAS) and I are in Lexington, Kentucky right now, at a Kinko's store checking up on our e-mails, Pet Talk, etc. We went to Keeneland race track yesterday and it was extremely fun!! Talk about crowded!! Then we drove around Lexington looking at the 900+ acre Thoroughbred farms...jawdroppingly beautiful!! We just got back from the Kentucky Horse Park a while ago, and of course that was fun too. Tomorrow morning we are getting up and heading to Tennessee to the horse ranch.

    I can't put pictures up now, but I will as soon as we get back home...we have tons . I miss coming on Pet Talk everyday, and I miss my ratties a lot too. . On the way down to KY, we stopped in Indiana overnight. When we were getting on the on ramp, there was a big turtle sitting there, so I got out of the car and walked him down to the ditch (where there was a large pond), so he/she wouldn't get run over. There was a man and his wife in a van behind us, he smiled when he saw that I was carrying a turtle to safety.

    So much to do, and so much to see. Got to be going, check-up on Pet Talk later!!

    Sad, isn't it - spending 20 cents a minute in a Kinko's to post on Pet Talk? Proves we're addicted, LOL ! We wanted to check our e-mails too though, so it wasn't just PT that brought us here. Like YLL said, we're having a lovely time, weather is cloudy but warm, and just NOT being at work is such a treat!
    We also saw MANY rare species of traffic cones on the way down here, so that was very educational (and extended our trip by 2 HOURS ). YLL spotted a Central Kentucky bushy-tailed bandit cone - you don't see THOSE every day! We tried to get pictures but of course we were rushing by them at 65 MPH (no, not in a workzone..........that would be illegal...........)

    We'll post a few of our vacation pix when we get back - I miss my kitty, so it was fun to come on here and see his picture in my sig!
    The legend says that Mohammed adored cats. When one of them was sleeping on his sleeve and he had to go out, Mohammed supposedly cut off the sleeve so as not to disturb his pet.

    I have a little cast iron colt my grandmother got me in Kentucky when I was a little girl. Smart lady, it isn't fragile, so I still have it, unbroken despite many moves! Good to hear from you, enjoy the rest of your trip!
