We spent the afternoon and late evening at The Sheboygan Yacht Club with other members and friends dressed up and enjoying mint julips in preparation for the Kentucky Derby on May 1st. Natalie and I won big time with the surprise win of Medina Spirit (my personal favorite) only to learn much later that there was doping involved.

The prim and proper evening slowly but surely degenerated into a crazy after party once the “older” crowd cleared the bar. Once again, Natalie kept winning the games and we pocketed several hundreds in spending money for our next adventure out!
