britt_brookeI‘m from Kentucky (and still consider it home though I left when I was 20), but haven‘t been to the derby either. I‘ve been to Churchill a couple of times for other races.6y
WhatThePuck@britt_brooke I've been on Oaks day numerous times. I live 3 miles from the track most of my life. My grandparents have owner's passes from a horse they had in the 80's. 🤣 But, I've never gone to Derby. If rather do a Derby party.6y
britt_brooke@WhatThePuck Too funny, but I completely understand. Oaks day would be fun, but derby day seems a bit too crazy for me. We went for the Breeder‘s Cup one year and that was crowded enough for me (and that‘s without the bonkers infield party).6y
WhatThePuck@Whimsical.Curiosity If you are going to yell things at the kids on the field you should at least know the rules. My biggest pet peeve and I will tell you when you're wrong. Lol. The most common mistake "Johnny! You're offsides!" Me: "Karen, you can't be offside, singular, on a throw in" #snob6y
KimberloneI also prefer paperbacks! Cheaper and lighter!6y
RuthiellaI envy your book journal! I wish I had been keeping one for that long. 😀6y

KayeI like Rebecca too. Do you like My Cousin Rachel as well ? Do you prefer country or city life ? Good to meet you. ♥️6y
LauraBethWhile at the library recently, the librarian looked at my card and wanted to replace it because it‘s so old and damaged and I was like, “I can‘t have a new number - I have this one committed to memory!” And she completely understood. 😀6y
LibrarianRyanI have 3 library cards memorized but not my current one.6y
Well-ReadNeck@kgriffith 🙌🏼@kaye Yes! But Jamaica Inn is probably my second favorite. Did u know that Hitchcock‘s The Birds is based on one of her short stories?@LauraBeth That‘s awesome!6y
