A week from today Amanda and I will be making the trek up to the Kentucky Horse Park for one of the best weekends of the year – RK3DE! Amanda actually flies in Wednesday night – we will get to play with the ponies before we head out Thursday afternoon!
Immediately following the camp planning conversations my trailer went into the shop. Turns out it might or might not be done in time for our departure. For those of you that have been to Rolex…  You can back me up when I say that it is pretty much always wet at least one of the days. Truck Tent Glamping is a blast and all but not so much when you are going to be like a wet dog all weekend. From there I started looking into RV rentals. What do you know there is an RV version of AirBnB! Most of them are way more than we will need but I am pretty pumped that we wont have to go outside to community showers and we will also be able to cook to save some money for some of our meals. Plus AC.
Still ironing out specific details but as of now we will be Lexington bound Thursday afternoon! Hope to see any of you guys that are going at the Taco Party! Who else is in???
I’m ridiculously excited for the Taco Party. Mostly because I don’t get all the hype about tacos and am feeling like Canadian tacos must be lacking.
I do not comprehend the statement “I don’t get all the hype about tacos”. WHAT??? You should come to Texas, we’ll learn you a think or two about tacos.
I second this. And Amanda’s point about Texas #breakfasttacos4eva
Sadly not going to Rolex, but how far do you have to drive the RV? That’s the one thing that I really would not look forward to.
It’s actually a camper. So I will just be pulling a trailer behind my truck. Not too far – maybe 4 hrs. 🙂
That’s not too bad then. My family always rented RVs and the worst part seemed like driving a giant box down the road.
I’m going! It’s my first time and I can’t wait! What is the Taco Party??
I sent you an email – we are all meeting up Thursday – if you add me on FB I can add you to the group event 🙂
Awesome! Thank you! 🙂
I’m psyched for taco party!!
Sadly, we are not going this year…you all enjoy! It is a blast and the shopping!!!
It will be so nice to camp versus going back and forth!
Very sad I won’t be coming and getting to see you and all the other amazing bloggers! I know you will spend money buying amazing things I will lust after and have lots of fun though! I’ll be over here repeatedly reminding myself #poniescominghome will be worth it!
I’m sad to be missing out on the meet-up, but I’ll have a taco party in solidarity in SD! Have fun!!
I WILL be going! Woohoo! Are you posting about some of the things you may be doing/visiting while you are there? So excited!
I’m going to Rolex, but not flying in until Thursday night (boo,work- being the boss sucks sometimes). So I’ll miss said taco party. If you guys have another get together, let me know!
I’m hoping we dont have a weather hat trick and end up with downpours for the 3rd year in a row on XC day…
Lots of photos please. Especially of the tacos. I mean the ponies. But also the tacos.
I’ll be thereeeeeee! And don’t want to miss you this year! What is this taco party!?! Also, Ariat is having our grand opening of our second brand store in Lexington that weekend!! You and Amanda will have to check it out!
Cool idea to rent an RV. We’ve thought about camping, but OMG it’s been such a muddy mess every year we’ve gone. And RV would certainly solve that.

I think we are going to meet at the Dubarry tent on Saturday at 11 as well. I added you on FB so I can add you to the group event.
So far (fingers crossed) it looks like were going to have a crappy few days here then its supposed to be in the 80s-maybe even 90s- for Rolex. That will probably bring afternoon storms, but Ill take it over the downpours of the last few years!
I’m late to the comments, but I won’t be late to the TACO PARTY! (well, hopefully not…. hahaha). Can’t wait!
Cool!! I wish I could join you guys at Rolex. I camped at the KHP during a horse show before and I loved getting to walk to the show past the XC each morning. =-)
