Hmmm...all I know about the place is that it is the home of the Louisville Slugger - baseball bat of preference.

William lived there - as a child. I wonder if he remembers anything...

I love them Louie Villians. Great folks. I had fun there. I worked as a
city planner and a photographer for the Louisville Courier Journal and
Times (which won quite a few Pulitzer Prizes for it's photography). My
most memorable photo essay was called the "Face of Central America" and I
did studies of people and their scenes all over Louisville. I lived on
St. James Court and loved the Shakespeare in the Park series in the
summers. I had a hot love affair there.

Ree, do you think he was trying to hide that fact by posting pictures of himself with adoring women hanging onto him and looking dreamily up into his eyes? If he succeeded in keeping all of those too-numerous-to-comprehend ladies happy while still remaining a virgin, he was doing something I know nothing about. (pulling out my blanket and sandwiches as I prepare to listen to the explanation)

...such a loving family....! Oh, I think they were more interesting than that, but we might have to ambush the man in person some time and ply him with drink to find out the true story. He will not surrender easily, I think...

Loo-vul or Loo-uh-vul. You hear someone say Looie-ville, they're not from there. Home of Hillerich & Bradsbury, as well as the real Louisville Slugger, Muhammad Ali! Home of the Louisville (University) Cardinals and the Louisville Redbirds (St. Louis Cards' triple-A affiliate). Also home of the late Dr. Martin Doudna (B.A. Oberlin, M.A. Louisville, PhD. Michigan in American Studies), my favorite professor from my days at the University of Hawaii at Hilo. He had a sprightly walk, a perpetual twinkle i
his eye and smile on his face, but when he read "Moby Dick," aloud in his booming basso profundo, you expected the great white whale and plenty of seawater to crash through the concrete walls of the classroom! He made literature come alive.

"Eight more miles and Louisville will come into my view.
Eight more miles on this old road, I'll nevermore be blue.
I knew someday that I'd come back; I knew it from the start.
Eight more miles to Louisville, the hometown of my heart,"
--the late "Grandpa" Jones (of "Hee Haw" fame)

Martin was the best - always most cordial to me and interesting, as well. He was one of the good old originals who came just about the time we did, I believe..
*smiling at the memory* (He was not one of those who pinioned me into the corner!)

The St. James Court art fair was the highlight of the year, since I lived
on St. James Court, I had this incredible high ceiling double front door
house with a porch and magnolia trees facing the famous fountain. I'd
open my doors wide and turn my living room in to a theater. My company
was called Transparency Fair and I did multimedia slide shows of people
and places with all kinds of cool music. Two slide projects were running
and projecting to screens side by side. That's where I met Barry Bingham,
publisher of the Courier Journal and Times, and got my Central America
assignment. And yes, please tie me down and ply it out of me, that could
be exciting.

I wish he would come back so I could get to converse with one of the most original and sharp minds on Spring. I did not get email from him because he does not know me from the proverbial hill of beans.

LOUISVILLE???? I know about this town. I need to read it. Had no idea it was here. Lovely in places. Hate it out Dixie Highway. And there are lovely suburbs now that all of Jefferson County is incorporated into Louisville proper. Just happened and all the services are having problems with it.
