Roundy's Kid became a champion 2YO in the west. Roundy's Lass's second foal, Flying Award, a chestnut gelding also by Maxinkuckee, was an iron horse, winning or placing in 13 stakes and racing until he was a 10YO, with over 90 starts. The next Maxinkuckee offspring was Timber Topper, a brown gelding who raced into his 7th year, winning or placing in 20 stakes. He earned about $90,000, a large amount for western Canada. Forestry, the next offspring of Roundy's Lass by Maxinkuckee, was "only" stakes placed, racing into his seventh year, also a gelding. There were three more Maxinkuckee foals from this mare: Diamond Hostess, a chestnut filly who would only place at two, Roundy's Ember, a bay filly who was a stakes-placed winner, and, finally, Timber Tramp, a chestnut gelding, who would only win a maiden.

The clubhouses gave way to small hotels, boarding houses, and private residences.

University of Kentucky - Blue Grass Wiriting Project - Storytelling - Storytelling has been around since the beginning of time. It was a way to preserve thoughts, ideas, morals as well as hand down historical events. Eventually these events and thoughts were put into a written format. Today, technology has allowed us to put a new twist on our thoughts, ideas, writing and storytelling. It allows us to enhance our writing with pictures and music. Included on this page are some resources for digital storytelling as well as samples digital stories that Fellows of the Bluegrass Writing Project have produced. Our technology project for the Bluegrass Writing Project Institute 2003 was to create a digital story. Fellows worked diligently during the Institute to complete their digital stories using Microsoft Power Point. If you do not have Microsoft Power Point on your computer, please go Microsoft web site for a free download of the Power Point Viewer. Note: some of the presentations are large files, please be patient while it loads. It is well worth the wait. Enjoy!
