Kentucky Derby

K, not the Derby, but the week after...Every year Zappos holds a vendor fair in Kentucky...gives some of the vendors a chance to tour our warehouse and of course have some fun...

it was a quick trip, left on a Wednesday, back on Friday, stayed in downtown Louisville...first night dinner outside
followed by a welcome reception for the vendors and bowling and some dancing...Moods of Norway guys, checkout zappos.com for some fun blazers by them :)
next day was an experience since we got to go to Churchill Downs to do some horse racing...made the hats the night before to get into theme :)
without the ridiculous hats...was so convenient and nice that we got seats in millionaires row, inside banquet tables to eat and drink then go watch the races out on the balacony when the sirens/horns went off

I bet once but didn't win :(
afterwards had a very long 3 hr yummy, fun dinner with our IT friends...found a SCU alumni
the steak and sides were all excellent!
and dessert was a production
and pretty fancy...Caron loves her tea and when she got to pick from this special box...she was won over...turned crazy actually :)
we were all full and tired, but made it out, got our second wind to spend our last night with the vendors at the zappos downtown pub crawl
