May 7th - Gold Cup

 Finally! I am going on my 8th year of living here and I've always wanted to go to Gold Cup, but I always seem to have something scheduled. While the rest of my May is jam packed, I actually had this weekend free. When Alissa asked if I wanted to go, I said yes immediately. We got a great deal on a bus to The Plains, food, drink and a spot right on the North Rails. We were so close to the action and a great time was had by all (some more than others). It was especially fun at the end trying to watch twenty-something’s (with way too much alcohol) trying to find the correct bus to get home! Here is Alissa, Brendan, and myself.
