Convention Side Trip

[bowiemaker]

For those coming to the 2013 convention in Shepherdsville, KY, it would be well worth your time to plan an extra day to visit the Frazier History Museum in Louisville (15 minutes north of Shepherdsville). They have an incredible collection of rare and historic arms.

That sound interesting. I love Museums of just about anything, especially anything to do with guns, the military, or cars.

Also near by is Knob Creek Gun Range at West Point home of  the famous ,"Machine Gun Show"
Fort Knox, 'n Patton Museum. The Mohummad Ali Museum is  near the Fraizer Museum  and the Louisville Slugger factory is accross the street from  the Fraizer. They will let you watch them make a bat, and will, for a small fee make one just for you, they make small ones and will put your name on it. West Point also Civil War site. Celeste

You guys eat a quick lunch cause you will want plenty of time when you go to the Frazier Arms Museum.

And if your like me you might want to stick an extra hanky in your pocket to wipe the drool from your chins.

I have been to the Frazier a couple of times, and felt like I did not have enough time.  There is just sooo much to see you have to pace yoursef.Celeste

...West Point also Civil War site. Celeste

That site is an earthwork fort, Ft. Duffield. I toured it in 2006, and it is interesting. Here is a link:

  Don't forget about 10 miles south of the convention is Jim Beam.  Tour the old home and get a few samples at the same time.  Bushwhacker

I'll pass on Cassius Clay shrine
