Louisville Travel Blogs

My British friend Marc (now resident in Holland) who I must say has the most annoying sense of humour called me today to ask what I was doing: I said I was getting ready to go to Sullivan's Steak House here in Tucson to watch the Kentucky Derby with my meet up friends. He laughed out loud and immed…

Me and Tina planned our Europe trip for 2 years, We saved very hard and went on our trip doing everything we wanted to NO BUDGET.  We designed our own trip and made all of our own reservations. This could have only been possible by the internet. If anyone has a question about train or Ferry tr…

We always enjoy going to the Louisville zoo as they are always updating the animals and displays. We took DJ our grandson this time and he is always a ham for the Camera.

We took our Grandson to the fair and he had a ball. The Fair runs for about 2 weeks and has every kind of contest, rides and displays you could think of. Just to mention a view, Quilts, rooster crowing contest, pipe smoking contest, best maters, hay squash, tobacco. It take a good 2 days to see and do it all. In the Large new south wing, Every county in Kentucky has a booth set up so you can see just what ALL of Kentucky is all about this is one of our favoarite place to go, The South Wing isit

I apoligise for not updating it more frequently - but there seem to be hardly any public computers in the US, but I will try to summarise every day pretty quickly and leave a comment if the entry sucks. All the Photos will come later otherwise there will be a link to my facebook photos. Ok in Lou…

This may not seem like many miles to travel in one day but is was a full day for us. <G> Following a quick breakfast we left the Kentucky Horse Park where we had camped over night.  There was many miles of meandering on the back roads so we could see as many horse farms with miles of bla…

These are photo from some of my favorite places. Hope you all enjoy. Finally got the photos to upload...don't know what the trouble was. These are quick trips I have take in my line of work. Some spectacular, some somber. Enjoy.

i realy need to get out

This stop was not for the doggies ... this one was definitely for me.  I'm HUNGRY.  We've been on the road about 6.5 hours now, and it's about 1:30pm.  Yep, I need some food.  We stopped at a Wendy's for a grilled chicken sandwich and got back on the road.  I'm impressed wi…

Although I had traveled to Louisville prior to this trip, the thrill of getting to re-experience the city was overwhelming. My best friend's sister has lived in Kentucky since her days in college and this was my third trip to see her; however, this was a special trip. I received a late night phone …

Okay, so I drove down the night before in prepreation for the show on Friday night : ) Originally I was just going down to film & record the show for the band "16 Bones" but was also asked by the band "Evil Engine # 9" if I could film & record for them as well. Friday (4th) in Louisville he…

So of course when you are on a whirlwind road trip such as this, you have to make sacrifices to make all your stops. Kentucky Kingdom was my original farthest destination until I realized Holiday World wasn't that far away.  So the plan was get to Holiday World early, so I could leave around 2…

I had one day off from work so I decided to go hiking up in Indiana. I had never been hiking up here before, so I was excited something new! I ended up taking the Grubb Ridge trail and camping at the campsite just south of the junction with the Peninsula trail. I took the variant just before I got to the Hays trail as I thought it would be a better trail.

I flew out to Arizona to help a friend drive back to New Jersey, and saw some neat freakin' shit along the way.
