We're devastated by the news of the fire and destruction at the Bass Bay Brewhouse. We're glad everyone is safe and hope for a speedy recovery and rebuild. The brewhouse has been a favorite spot to get out of the city and visit for a fish fry or relaxing night on the lake. Our deer friends Neto and Jenny got married there in 2017. It's a beautiful location.

I had the privilege of photographing another wonderful event by the talented Janelle Meyer on Saturday. We've been working together for over 30 years and her events are always fresh and fun. Yesterday's theme was Kentucky Derby. There was the typical silent auction but also lots of fun with a pin-the-tale game, ring toss for booze, and a jumbotron so that we could all watch the race. We were entertained by the band Old Sam and the Teardrops playing 1920s era jazz and pop. The food was casual, delicious and had a southern flare thanks to Nobel Catering.

The event was held at Art Below Zero's property near Racine. His mural served as a selfie stand background and he sculpted a horse out of ice live for us to watch. It was very impressive to see the ice fly and a horse emerge from a couple blocks of ice. Even his dogs got into the spirit with riders on their backs - I'm sure they didn't request acting like horses for the afternoon.

The day was spectacular with perfect temps and bright sunshine. But all that changed as the race started and the rains came. Most of us braved the drops to watch the race but right as it finished we were deluged. They had to put away the big screen and we all had to wait inside for the results from that exciting finish. Thanks to all who participated and who came together with my friend to create this amazing event.
