LOUISVILLE, CONTINUED.
Many many many months ago, I saw that my favorite Rufus Wainwright was playing a show in Louisville in August and bought tickets the day they went on sale. Last week, Jesse and I were shocked to discover that it was AUGUST somehow....seriously, where did it come from? Luckily, Jesse's mother stepped in and saved the day, watching the farm for us and allowing us to stay a few days in Louisville. We haven't been away from the farm...well, EVER...since we moved here earlier in the year. It was a wonderful treat, a chance to catch up with old friends, listen to some magical music, and eat lots of good food. The trip was mostly full of coffee shops, book stores, Indian food, and maybe even some ice cream. We went to Hillbilly Tea, where we had lunch on our wedding day last December....so delicious. We also saw the movie Beasts of the Southern Wild- suspecting it probably wouldn't make it to the Danville Cinemas 8 anytime soon. It was a BEAUTIFUL film! Basically, we had a great time feeling like "city folks" for a couple days...walking around town, eating brunch, staying out late. But it was quickly back to the farm life for us....chasing down escaped rabbits and harvesting melons and trying to contain the overflowing tomato pile on our kitchen counters. And we wouldn't have it any other way.
