Peg Schaeffer spent Saturday glued to the Tv Coverage of the Kentucky Derby, still dreaming of fulfilling her Number 1 Bucket List it, seeing the Derby in person.Next Previous Happy Tail: Happy Tail: Regrets overwhelmed, but Eden made them go away By Peg Schaeffer Another Kentucky Derby has come and gone.
