The Friends of Lou had their first gathering last night at the Kentucky Derby Festival for Glimmer on the Waterfront. About 200 of Louisville’s closest friends shared special Friends of Lou drinks, pulled pork, and some kind of chicken liver thing wrapped in bacon(?) all in a prime location near the stage. Really nicely done. The Louisville CVB’s Stacey Yates was the graceful hostess of ceremonies. The Bourbon Country tent provided perfect digs. Possibility City also showed off its “visitness” last night combining live music, hot air balloons, food-on-a-stick and our favorite bourbon. Hmmn…Shouldn’t Maker’s Mark should have a giant balloon? Better yet! A Maker’s Mark blimp! It could race Goodyear’s! Somebody get on that. But I digress…Really a good time last night. Lots of different people just chillaxing. Good vibe. The VilleVoice showed up as well, but needed more booze. I’ll never argue that one. Louisville Photography Collective was out in force. They have lots of great pics. Check those out.
