The Run for the Roses THE KENTUCKY DERBY

Solana Beach Market Report Presented By Jennifer Anderson

The Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs Louisville, Kentucky

SUN CATCHERS W

ho doesn’t love the look and feel of a sun-drenched room, light and airy and full of freshness? Unfortunately, if you’re like most homeowners, you have a room or two that always seems a bit dark and dreary. Maybe it’s a downstairs bathroom with only one small window, a windowless closet or laundry room, or even a main space in your home that just never seems to get enough natural sunlight. Sound familiar? Well then, have we found an interesting solution for you!

America’s Greatest Race Churchill Downs, the world’s most legendary racetrack, has conducted thoroughbred racing and presented America’s greatest race, the Kentucky Derby, continuously since 1875. The Kentucky Derby takes place on the first Saturday in May every year, and typically draws a crowd of 155,000 people.

Often called “The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports,” the Kentucky Derby receives this nickname from the approximate length of time it takes the winner to run from the starting gate to the finish line.

Its rich traditions – sipping a mint julep, donning a beautiful hat, and joining fellow race fans in singing “My Old Kentucky Home” – transcend the Kentucky Derby from a mere sporting event, making it a true icon of Americana.

Enter Solatube, a cool new way to get natural sunlight into the darkest and most depressing rooms of your home … all without major construction. And without breaking the bank! Here’s how it works: Solatube installers come to your home and fit in tubing that runs from your rooftop to the ceiling of the room you’re looking to illuminate. The Solatube Daylighting System captures sunlight in a domelike lens on the roof. Then the light is transferred down this tubing, which is made from highly reflective material. Finally, special diffusers at the end of the tubes evenly disperse the natural sunlight throughout the room. The Solatube tubing can run for up to 30 feet allowing natural light to flow into lower levels of your home, something which cannot be done with traditional skylights of yore. And because the tubing is installed in sections, angled pieces can be built around joists and rafters so there is no major construction needed at installation. In fact, installation can take place in just a few hours.

And while older skylights often look outdated, Solatube offers several stylish choices of decorative fixtures to finish the look of the lights in your rooms. Guests may not even realize the lights are anything other than traditional light fixtures. There are even options to diffuse the light, making it seem natural, warm, or soft, depending on your lighting preferences.

Of course, the natural sunlight is a huge benefit to the look of your home, but the other major advantage of the Solatube system is for your electricity bill. Since sunshine is free, your lighting bill will be decreased. That’s good for you and for the environment!

Studies have also shown that natural sunshine is good for your health.

And if the newfound sunshine is ever too much of a good thing? The company offers a handy dimmer to shut out daylight in case you need to go nap.

ant to get more connected with the cultural scene in your community? Seek out an art walk. Many towns and cities with thriving art scenes offer weekly or monthly art walks, when community members are invited to come out at night and stroll from gallery to gallery to soak up the sights. Think of it similar to a pub-crawl, only participants are sipping wine and nibbling on hors d’oeuvres not drinking ale, all while admiring and perhaps even purchasing fine art along the way.

Wondering where to begin? Start by searching for art walks in your city online, or call any local museums or galleries and ask them to fill you in on all the details. If you live in a smaller town,

ART WALK

you may have a few galleries hooking up to offer introductions to their work and new exhibits on a monthly basis. Some larger cities boast art walk lounges, where you can start your own self-guided tour and gather maps and information on the galleries and nearby local businesses. Some cities even offer smart phone apps to help guide you as you walk from gallery to gallery. Other enticing opportunities we’ve seen in some cities include meet-the-artist moments when you can watch the artists at work; pre- and post-art walk parties at nearby bars, restaurants, and hotels; live music; and horse-drawn carriage rides to get you from gallery to gallery.

A few tips: Be sure to get to the galleries early if you’re interested in sharing some of the food and wine, as these events can get crowded and offerings can run out. And remember that you’re really there for the art, not for the free goodies. Also, realize that artists are interested in sharing and educating people about their craft, and though they would love it if you bought their art, they certainly don’t expect everyone to make a purchase. Don’t be intimidated by pricey galleries, as most savvy artists will offer a vast price range of their work.

If there isn’t an art walk in your town (and there should be if it’s home to at least several art galleries), start one! Not only is it a great way to enjoy a cultural experience within your own community, it is also a great idea for a date night, or if you’re single, an exciting way to meet like-minded art lovers that live in your area. Sounds like a win-win to us!
