Churchhill Downs




Sat. morning we drove to Louisville where we spent until mid afternoon on Sun. Visiting my cousin Barbara, Uncle Gerald and Aunt Frieda Wheeler. after arriving Sat. morning we went to the Kentucky Derby Museum located at Churchill Downs. I really enjoyed it especially the guided tour out to the winners circle. On Sun. we took a driving tour through Old Louisville. Old Louisville is filled with streets full of grand old brick mansions as well as large brick houses and apartment buildings. Both Nancy and I like to look at the old houses as we tour the country. The architecture and construction is different in every region for instance in Louisiana, MO they were nearly all wood and here in Kentucky the construction is nearly all brick.
