Me.. between my painting & Andrea Steiner's painting at AAEA show |
Saturday morning we were up early and out to Cobra Farm, where I was given a personal tour and chance to photograph any of the fine foals who were going to the Keeneland young stock sales....and the yearlings. I fell in love with a 2 year old filly who would have come home with me if I had a suitcase big enough! [ Not to mention a bank account to match! ]
One of the many shots of young stock at Cobra Farm. Looks like a Blue Horse! |
Tamika and her daughter Katey |
Then we went on a drive through Kentucky...the farms....the countryside...and even checked out Jesse James mother's old tavern, where my husband had thoughts of opening his own tavern!!!
[ Les' middle name is Jesse....and our eldest son is a Jesse too!]
Les at the Tavern.... just thinking! |
We are back home now.....it took me a few days to get into the swing of things....and I am looking through all my photos, books and information collected on our whirlwind few days, where we had a wonderful time experiencing Kentucky with great friends......in horse country!
Now it is time to get focused and to love on some Cob Cottage horses [and dogs] ....and to enjoy the beauty that surrounds us here in September!!

Sounds like and amazing time, Kathi - I envy you seeing all that artwork! Glad the opening was busy!
Now you just need a "staycation" to recover! :-)
A new reader to your blog. That reads like such a fulfilling trip that it left you slightly exhausted. Lots of good memories.
Best wishes.
Thanks Linda...but no rest for the wicked! Another show hanging this week...and then I can get some down time....and just paint.There will be more drawing done this year.For sure!
