Steeplechase 2009

MUDDY, but a great day! The weather turned out perfect!!! Usually everyone dresses up with big hats, expensive dresses, suits, etc. A very rich/historical event in Nashville. But with the mud this year (it's been raining in Nashville for 3 weeks straight) most people went casual. Well... most smart people. :)

Below: Jason (Geof's boss man) and hot mama Suzie!! We LOVE them!

And they're off! Notice the tents in the infield below... all of those people are standing in mud ankle deep. Really. See the last picture and you'll get the idea of the type of mud. I wore my rain boots! Thank God! I've never seen so many people take off their shoes and trudge thru mud like that. It was quite a site. And of course when all the alcohol sets in, you get to watch all sorts of mud slides and mud fights. Mostly college and high school groups. Quite a day, let me tell ya! Luckily, Jason rented a huge tour bus RV, so our group had prime location and a bathroom on board!

Below: Jason made the mistake of driving the BMW.... d'oh! This is what the infield looked like. (mud)
