Over to the right, under "Gordon's Gallery", you'll find a link to Jill's pictures-- an area still under development. Currently, her Derby Balloon Glow photos are what you'll see first. Scroll down the page, for links to her Waverly Hills pictures, and our Kentucky State Fair cake. More to come!

Waverly Hills Sanitarium
Waverly Hills is the name of an old sanatorium(sanitarium?) here, in Louisville. It was a convalescent facility for tuberculosis patients in the first half of the twentieth century. My mom remembers singing Christmas carols there with her school group. --They were not allowed to interact with the patients, for fear of the contagiousness of the disease, so the kids were rounded up into a "clean" room to sing into a Public Address system, that filled the halls of Waverly.
