July 4th in Louisville, Ky (July 4, 2016)

 As noted in last post, weather was bad. It did not just rain, most of the time it flat poured. I got the photo at left passing by...it is Slugger Field which is the home of the Louisville Knights AAA baseball team. Nice field and the team is pretty good. Its a brand new place in downtown Louisville (well, a few years old now) but a much better ballpark then what they had which was a combined football/baseball field.
Above is the new bridge, still under construction. Will be great when its done but that looks to be awhile. As noted in previous post, took a long time to build the two new bridges, but will be a great improvement.
At left is Yum Arena which is the new home for the Louisville Cardinals Basketball team. They also hold a lot of concerts there. Freedom Hall was the old arena and it was nice, but this is nicer. It is also huge.
Usually I would have made a tour of the area and seen some sights, have done that in previous posts here when I visit. This trip though just did not get to get out much. Mainly due to the weather, partly due to the time. Been some serious rain the last few weeks. Did enjoy spending time with family and friends. We do what we can.
