"Bella Notte, or “beautiful night” in Italian, is a locally owned Tuscan-inspired family restaurant designed in the style of an Italian trattoria (town meeting place). The environment features a large tree centerpiece, white pinpoint lights, stars hanging from the ceiling, and a quiet atmosphere suited for both dates and family dining. Meat takes precedence on the menu, which includes Tuscan style chicken, pork chops, beef spiedini, steaks and fish."

"Long Run Park is an excellent kayaking area only 30 minutes directly west from the center of Louisville. A Stillwater Class I kayaking area, it is perfect for families with young children and those who have never tried kayaking before. The area is very quiet and is often used as a place of introspection by kayaking enthusiasts who like to pause and birdwatch or enjoy a good book at one of the picnic areas nearby."
"Another one of the best parks in Louisville is Long Run Park. Located a little further away from Downtown Louisville than the other parks on the list. A very nice park to visit for fishing, to take the kids to play on the playgrounds, or cool off in the new spraygrounds addition."
"In June 1775, a group of pioneers named their camp at McConnell Springs “Lexington” in honor of Lexington Green in Massachusetts, site of the first battle of the Revolutionary War. Today, McConnell Springs Park serves as a valuable refuge for wildlife, and it’s a very convenient place to enjoy some hiking trails right within city limits when there isn't enough time to get to Red River Gorge. The small nature center has helpful staff and informative exhibits, but the real reason to visit McConnell Springs Park is to enjoy the well-maintained walking trails."
"It was between the brooks and swaying ash trees of McConnell Springs, a pretty chunk of greenery and wilderness on the northern fringes of the city, that the frontiersman William McConnell and his compadres first set up camp in the summer of 1775. While there, the group learned of the start of the American Revolution and decided to name their settlement in honour of the town in Massachusetts where the first outbreaks of anti-colonial skirmishes had been."
"McConnell Springs is a special rush of thick greenery and wilderness that beautifies the northern borderlines of Lexington. It takes its name after William McConnell, a hinterlander who used this area for his camp along with his amigos in 1775. This clique got here in the early days of the American Revolution and decided to give the beginning of this settlement a name after Lexington – a town in Massachusetts."
