It's a pretty good walk to the exhibition halls. Parking at the Fairgrounds is $5/day. Food and beverages inside are HIGH. However, I recommend the porkchop sandwiches at the Pork Producers Kiosks. If your looking for less exspensive and don't mind a little driving, look South on I-65 10 miles south of Fairgrounds on I-65 and Brooks Rd. Comfort Inn $70/night (502) 957-6900 Quality Inn and Suites $70/night (502) 955-6272 Hampton Inn $99/night (502) 957-5050 Group rates may be available. It would take several to commit to one location. These are just the first three that come up. There's a Holiday Inn Express just opened up there. The "more results" link brings up several more. Be sure to check a map for location. The entire area, including Brooks may be considered Shepherdsville. google: hotels Brooks KY Not as convenient as staying by the fairgrounds, byt $30/night less expensive buys some inconvenience. Straight shot up the interstate takes 15-30 minutes (rush hours) Shepherdsville proper is about 10 more miles. I'm happy to help anyone out if you need some local input. email me at greatbluewhale AT insightbb DOT com.

I was born in Louisville and spent my early childhood just outside the city, and lived and worked there through the first half of the 80s. It's an excuse to stay at the Brown and eat hot browns, and see people I haven't seen in over ten years. Can't commit yet, though. Bad timing (finals week and all that). Hmmm, I may be there.
