A friend and I will be passing through Louisville in early January. We won't have much time - an overnight with a good part of the day on either side. Looking for recommendations for a cool motel/hotel/hostel and a fun neighborhood to stroll around in. What we're not: shoppers, clubbers, or sight see-ers. Tips for a reasonable restaurant with good libations are welcome. We won't have much time, so we're not trying to do and see everything, just want to bum around and get and get an impression of the place, meet the friendly locals. :)

My boyfriend and I are going to Mammoth Cave as part of a road trip this fall. I see there are a lot of options for tours. Any suggestions? We're more interested in cave features & scenery not the historic stuff.

Does anyone remember a place called the Dixie Trailer Park? I lived there in 1969, when I was nine years old. None of our mail from this time has any address, other than Dixie Trailer Park, so I am unable to locate it on aerial photos. If any one can help me out with where it would be (if it had survived over the years)I would be thankful. I would like to check out my old stomping grounds via satellite pictures. Thanks Stacy

I will be at the Hyatt Regency Lexington and will be with 2 people who are diabetic. I was looking at the menus of the restaurants near the hotel and they don't seem to have much for diabetic people.

I am wondering if anyone reading this has taken horses to Natural Bridge. It has a reputation for "losing" hikers to the cliffs and so I wonder what dangers we would find when riding our horses there. My friends are hesitant to go because of this dangerous reputation. Any other comments with regard to riding there would also be appreciated.

Seems like they've been revamping this tour recently, so I don't know what I'd get if we stopped. We have two smaller kids, and if there is still a self-guided tour around the grounds, I'd stop to let the family stretch their legs. If it is still "hustle into a room to watch a video" or a full blown tour only, I'll give this one a pass. Can anyone give me insight into what I could truly expect? Thanks!

A couple years ago my family visited Kentucky Lake. Before our trip, I looked up some interesting places to visit. Unfortunately, I didn't get to do many of these things. We are going back to Kentucky Lake this summer and I was trying to look up a few of the places again. I remember finding a little information about a tiny, old church (possibly a schoolhouse). It was in the middle of the woods or something and there may not even be any main roads to this place. Did I dream this place up or can someone please tell me more about it? Also, is there a historica place that gives scenic train rides?

please could some one tell me the price on the camp spots at jenny wiley park for campers???

Where is the house located on Winn Street? What is the address?

Hey there - I'm helping my husabnd plan a Bachelor Party trip that he's hosting for a friend. They are planning to go to the infield at Derby. We live in Columbus, so it's about a 3.5 hour drive. I've heard that most hotels make you stay for three nights, and it's probably pretty pricey. Anyone have any ideas where nine very nice (not too crazy!) guys could spend the night on Friday and Saturday night of Derby weekend? They don't need anything fancy, but would prefer for the place to be clean and safe. Or, can anyone just give me an idea in general about staying in Louisville that weekend? Is it better to stay out of town a little bit? They were thinking of going to Versailles, KY for a distillery tour on Sunday, so maybe somewhere in that area would be better, price and availability-wise? Thanks for any ideas!!

Hi All We live in Columbus Ohio and find ourselves within driving distance of Kentucky, the state parks look very interesting and inviting.

Also how cold does it get? Any advice on th above will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance! Rgds Abi
