Trip to USA: Kentucky

 

 

 

 

 

Sunday / 6 June 2004

My sister Martha and her husband Mark and their four children came to Louisville for two days, and today we went together--with Aunt Jane, another sister--to the Frasier Arms Museum in downtown Louisville. It is quite an extensive collection of the weapons of the last millennium, including the official exhibit in the United States from the British Royal Armory which takes the whole third floor of the building.  I would probably prefer a museum dedicated to less militaristic artifacts, but the museum itself is quite well done, well staffed, and a valuable part of the revitalized downtown Louisville along Main Street.
