Fun in Louisville


A couple of weeks ago I was able to go to Louisville Kentucky for a couple of nights. Well it was for work but I was there two nights in a row. I was so glad when I got there to find out that we had a new hotel that was right in the heart of Downtown.

The first day I was able to walk down by the Ohio River and the Steamboat docks. I also got to walk around downtown, by there town hall and read all the historic signs and see the statues. The town was so nice and tidy. I even liked the humidity pressing against me like a down comforter. Weird huh!! It wasn't to hot that is probably why.

I also loved all of the fountains in the city and this little downtown area on 4th street. It was like an outdoor mall, but covered and they have live concerts there at night.

The next day I was able to go to the Louisville Slugger factory. It was so much fun watching them make bats and learning about there history. I got to see bats used by greats such as Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, Shoeless Joe Jackson and Ty Cobb. I also got to see baseballs signed by every president from Theador Roosevelt on.

I think the thing I was most grateful for was that when I left my phone there the first night. I got to go back that night and pick it up!!
