In Honor of Cathy's 49th Birthday

Louisville "Hometown of Jackie"

Downtown Louisville


Louisville Slugger Museum


Building down the street from the Bat Factory

We're camped right across the river, in Indiana, from Louisville. The other day we took of on the bicycle to ride along the river and we were gone for 5 hours. We went to the Falls of Ohio, a ton of little parks along the river and in the little town centers. We took a tour of the Louisville Slugger Bat Factory and Museum, had to buy a Babe Ruth signature bat for Nick. It takes about an hour and half to see everything and is well worth the trip. They have the big bat out front as you can see in the picture, then about 1/2 a block down the street is the Plate Glass Building with the ball through the window.
We went to both National Cemeteries in the area, New Albany, which is one of the original 13, and the Louisville National Cemetery which is in the Cave Hill Cemetery.
It was raining today (Thursday) so we just did a little shopping and tried another restaurant. Before we leave Sunday we want to get to Locust Grove, last home of George Lewis Clark, and President. Zachary Taylors Grave site.
Looks like we're going to have to save the Chuchill Downs Museum for our next trip here.
Gotta go turn the steaks.
