Morning in Louisville!

Headed back to Louisville for breakfast with the group.   We've seen a lot of these two signs so far this weekend.  We're staying in Indiana and the group and activities are in Louisville.

It's been cloudy up until now.  Today we were rewarded with a great view of Louisville.

Some of the group have been to this place before and loved it.  First time for me and David!  We meet up at Diane's house and take two cars as parking can be a problem as this place is really popular.

In fitting style with our blog (Eclectic Summer), this place is truly eclectic!  I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

 Giant coffee pot and cups filled with flowers outside the restaurant.

 Not Pattie's birthday, but the hat looked great on her.

 Paulette spent some of the time waiting for our great breakfast playing with an I-Spy toy on the table.

 This giant tree was behind our table.  It's filled with all kinds of strange things.

 Another painted horse....it's actually a toaster!  Check out the plug!

And a silver moose!

 Suzanne is an excellent cow rider!

 Suzanne and I took pictures of each other taking pictures of each other!

 I actually talked Carol and Pattie into having this picture taken!

 David and Charles even had a lively engineering discussion!

After breakfast we headed to Cave Hill National Cemetery.  It was Memorial Day weekend and the graves of the Union dead and Confederate dead were decorated with flags.  It was so sad to see so many rolling hills covered with flags.  

The cemetery marked the end of our reunion (pun intended).  Some of the ladies had to head back home.  Charles and Diane offered to show us more of this cemetery, so we took them up on it!  Not all of the cemetery is a National Cemetery.  There are many large memorials here that are stunning.  I missed taking the pictures of several of them.  They were tombs built into the side of a hill.  They reminded me of what the tomb of Jesus might have looked like.

One of the notable buried here is Col. Harlan Sanders of Kentucky Fried Chicken fame!

Great works of art such as statues and stained glass windows in some of the masoleums were spectacular.

Diane and Charles decided to come and visit us and Chrissy at the campsite, so back to Indiana.  We were a little hesitant about how Chrissy might behave (you know how she can be!).  Turned out not to be a problem at all.

She was a perfect lady!

We were sad to see Charles and Diane leave, but they had things to do!  Can't wait until the next reunion! We'll be on our own tomorrow!

Catch us down the road!
