At about 3:00 on the afternoon they start an air show which is cool also. The cool part for us is the planes fly all the way down the Ohio river to where we are to turn and head back to downtown Louisville. The kids get a big kick (and so does The Hubbs and me) out of hearing and watching all the neat planes fly over.
There are all kinds of events going to during this two weeks before the Derby. We'll try to attempt to take the kids to the balloon glow next weekend if it doesn't rain too much. That's the only bad part about Derby time - the rain and cold. Some years though, we have excellent weather like today - 75 degrees and sunny! Good day for grillin' I'd say!
Well, best be headin' into the kitchen. I will leave you guys with a picture of HubbaDood and his daddy holding the catfish they caught this morning. HubbaDood was pretty proud of that.
This made a tastey treat for lunch today - love that fried catfish!!

You are just too funny for you own good Badoozer!
Mmmm... catfish. I don't care if they do eat all the gunk off the bottom of the lake. There's not much better than corn-breaded catfish fried hard and crisp.
Down here, They don't have a clue how to do catfish. Lightly breaded with white flour and fried like a Gorton's fish stick is... well, it's almost blasphemy.
Foo - "blasphemy" is about right! Corn meal all the way with catfish - fried crisp! YUM! I'm ready for some more.
hi, i popped over from susie's blog... i was checking out your blog and my seven year old son says, "who's that mom? your friends?"
i said, well not quite yet.
He said, "you're just starting to know them? well maybe i could be friends with that little boy!!!"
It was so cute.
we have a Balloon Festival in Tahlequah and I have always wanted to go but we never make it. I hope you get to enjoy some of the fun!
Does HubbaDad/Dood like to fish alot? Do they make you clean it?
Have you ever had Spoonbill? Now THAT is an odd fish, but boy they taste good with Italian bread crumbs and fried. I haven't had it in years.....
Wow, that's a decent sized fish. Bet it tasted good.
Enjoy the Festival.
Take care, Meow
Mrs. D - That is so sweet to hear. HubbaDood won't be 7 until October. He passes by the computer when I'm on here and asks all kinds of questions too.
Aunti J - Yes he loves to fish as much as he can. It's so nice that The Hubbs has HubbaDood - they have so much fun together.
Meoq - It was a pretty good fish - and tastey too! Thanks!
