Louisville, Kentucky

I never though of going to Louisville until my sister brought up spending a weekend there.  At the same time I read a GQ spread about how it's the manliest city in America.  Adrea convinced me right away with talk of a Ghost tour of an old sanatorium.  Unfortunately Adrea wasn't able to come with us, but Seth and I went anyway and we absolutely loved it.  I wasn't expecting to take fancy to a city in Kentucky, but who knew?  Louisville is awesome.  We followed GQ's article pretty much to a T, and I'm glad we did.  We spent time shopping on Bardstown Road that had the best little vintage and boutique shops.  We ate some good food, visited the Churchill downs, went on a ghost tour, and ended the trip with an amazing trip to Mammoth Cave.

Instead of lugging around my heavy digital slr camera, I decided to go with my trusty little 35mm canon AE-1.  Much easier to shoot with while traveling around.  So these are the film pictures.
