The people who live across the Ohio River in southern Indiana (New Albany, Clarksville, and Jeffersonville) jokingly say they live on the sunny side of Loo-in-vuhl. I moved away almost 24 years ago. We (hubby and I) would go back and visit yearly but have not been able to the last 4 years for health reasons. The Frazier Museum opened after I moved away. I remember (and visited) the science and natural history museum. There are several museums in Louisville - Louisville Slugger(Hillerich and Bradsby baseball bats), Churchill Downs Museum (all about the Derby), Speed Art Museum, the Science museum, and Farmington home of the Speed family who were friends of Abraham Lincoln. It's a very interesting city with a lot of history. Kathy R.
