Last weeks CVS store visits took me to Louisville KY.
Beth tells me it is pronounced "Luvul KY", lol!!!
As the 16th largest city in the U.S. and the largest city in the state, Louisville, Kentucky is home to over 90 attractions, 17,000 hotel rooms and 2,500 restaurants and the world famous Kentucky Derby horse race.
Named for King Louis XVI of France in appreciation for his assistance during the Revolutionary War, Louisville was founded by George Rogers Clark in 1778. While its initial growth was slow, the advent of the steamboat in the early 1800s sparked booming industrial development, and by 1830 Louisville had secured its place as the largest city in Kentucky.
