Jim Schue Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 One benefit to being in Louisville is that there are tons of things to do. I get really irritated when people say there's nothing to do. We are really lucky here. We may not have pro-sports, but we have a very eclectic city, with lots to offer, and most of it really inexpensive, if not free. Shakespeare in the Park is free. The Speed and Ali Museums are really inexpensive. The Gallery Hop is free. I love simply walking through the neighborhoods around here in the Highlands looking at the architecture, and even strolling through Calvary Cemetary looking at the historic monuments. We have the zoo, the RiverBats, free concerts, community festivals, church picnics....I could go on and on. Oh! That reminds me! The Greek Festival is coming up! And, don't forget the TonyDanza festivals! Those are really good value as well! Greek Festival? What part of town? I loves me some baklava.

rockmom Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Greek Festival? What part of town? I loves me some baklava. Well, I was looking for the info, and I can't find any for this year. :confused: It used to be on Garvin, in Louisville. Then, last year it was at The Belvedere. It was always the last weekend in June. But I can't find any listings for it. I'll keep looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

statmanhensley Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I could potentially have a chance to go to Tulsa, Oklahoma towards the end of this month. Not sure if I'll officially get the offer but it would be to go out there to work the CABA Baseball World Series for a couple age groups. If I'm offered there and things go well, I'm hoping for an offer to go to Aberdeen, Md. to work the Cal Ripken World Series. Keep your fingers crossed for me please! Thanks!

Qryche11 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Staying home this summer and playing in the baby pool on the deck with my 20 month old. No need to travel. I took off these last two days to get away from the desk job and have had the best two days of the year just hanging out with her and splashing around. With the economy where it is, seriously we cancelled all trips this year and will be doing more local entertaining this summer. I may even take the family out to the Florence Aquatic Center soon.
