Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and going to Louisville Lovers….

My Mom and I love going to the big Louisville Dog Show that is held every year in March. Howl ever we have not been able to go for a few years.

So, we set off on this first day of spring to catch the really big show…..But, first things first! We drove directly to the Brown Hotel for a famous Hot Brown and a glass of Chardonnay! Oh dear me, it does not get any better than this for us!

The Hotel is just stunning. Here is a picture of the lobby.

The Hotel was built in 1923 as you can see.

The Hot Browns were amazing. If you are ever in Louisville please go. You will not be sorry!

Then it was off to the Dog Show.

After a few rounds I turned to Grandma and said, “where are all the big boys?” She laughed and said, “I think you are just used to looking at Chaps!” She was right!!! The Mayor is actually larger than life!

We ran into a few good friends. Mary Ann and Norman. This is their beauty, SKY!

More loving Spring later……Cat, Chaps and Emma

    I wish I could have been there. Man, that hot brown is making my mouth water because I haven’t had breakfast yet!!! I actually copied that recipe you put up here that time and have been meaning to try it.

    Yummy….Yummy….so good in the Tummy!!! Sure made me homesick for good old KY. Can’t wait until April when we are in Louisville. Definitly will be on our must do list…along with a visit to Bassethoundtownn.

    What a wonderful way to spend a Spring day….a famou Hot Brown and a Dog Show. Life can’t get any better than that…

    See you soon….love you!

    It sounds like a delightful day for everyone, but did you have to leave Emma and Chaps at home? I suppose you had to; otherwise, Chaps and Emma would win all of the ribbons.

    How far are you from Louisville?

    I think I have heard of that hotel, but I have never heard of Hot Browns, what are they?
