I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
The Kentucky Derby has long brought some of the most famous celebrities and guests to the Bluegrass State. Held annually in lovely Louisville, Kentucky, the eponymous Derby attracts scores of folks for each year; in 2022, 147,000 people attended the only-in-Kentucky event. Of these fascinator-and-bow-tie clad visitors, you’ll find some of the biggest Hollywood stars, sports icons, and celebrity chefs, making the Kentucky Derby one of the best and most celebrated events in the country.
The Kentucky Derby is one of those only-in-Kentucky events that certainly belongs on your bucket list — whether you’re a celebrity or not! There’s nothing more “Kentucky” than this beloved annual fete.
