Hello everyone! I'm finally back from Kentucky, it was a great two weeks! I didn't take very many pictures, but I wanted to share what I do have.
First up, here is my mom with our table from the Pony Fair. Picture was taken early on Saturday right after we finished setting up.
Up next is mom's winning entry from the "Loo-ah-vul" Contest, his name is "Run for the Roses":
While in Louisville, we visited Churchill Downs:
The museum featured this display of Super Saver, the 2010 winner of the Kentucky Derby:
And here I am having a go at being a jockey in one of the museums interactive installations:
I didn't take many pictures at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington b/c I've been so many times. It is an awesome place to visit for anyone that loves horses. Here's a picture of my favorite statue that sits in front of the main entrance:
Now for the brags! Here is a group shot of all the pony stuff I got at the fair, with a few items from Breyerfest:
Giant Pinkie Pie and little Minty!
I got this puzzle from a girl at Breyerfest for $1:
Here are the newest additions to my Parasol custom army. The swirly G3 was made by Colorscapesart, the TAF G1 adult was made by Elfpony, and the G1 baby was made by Wysteria.
A close up picture of some of the ponies:
I didn't get a chance to photograph most of the Breyers I got, but here are the two Special Runs I picked up from the tent:
Star Studded
Stage Mom and Child Star
I got some really great stuff at Breyerfest this year. For you Breyer collectors out there, here's a quick list of what I picked up:
All Glory (the Breyerfest Celebration model)
Espirit
Pink Ribbon Breast Cancer model
Rugged Painted Lark (traded with a little girl at the swap meet, I missed coming to BF in 2007 and 2008.)
Alborozo (So happy to have him finally!)
SM Single Day Ticket Emmy and Oscar
2007 SMs Stars and Stripes
2007 SM Trixie
2008 SM Compass (he is lovely!)
A full set of the 2010 Games Stablemates
2010 Fun Day Model (Classic sized pleasure horse in grey pinto)
and finally, my grail for Breyerfest 2010... the 2010 Quarterfest model, Smokin' Hot Chick! I'm a huge Lady Phase fan and I had to have her! I wish I'd got a good picture of her to share, I'll try to get one maybe this weekend and I'll add it to the thread.
Lastly, I want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone that bought/sold/traded with me at the fair (and Breyerfest) this year! Off the top of my head, that list includes: Colorscapesart, Elfpony, Wysteria, Purple Alice, ashlyne, Baby Stargazer, daniz_69, Alatariel, Gusty365, 4Lindy, Lemondrop Wishes, Ivy, Trader Tif, lunarscythe, xeevee, Asuka, KitKatVintage, Kar Red Roses, umm... I know I've forgotten people, I'm sorry! It was so nice to meet so many people, and I hope to see everyone again at another pony event in the future! I also want to thank the fair staff, Sweet Tune, Girlbuffalo1, Nachtlicht, and all the other helpers for running a wonderful fair!
