This is where I'll be! If anyone is near enough to Louisville, KY to stop by for all or part of the weekend, there is a fabulous event going on. It's the Jane Austen Festival at Locust Grove. Locust Grove is a Georgian manor house that has been restored to its appearance as of roughly 1810 or so, I believe. Do you remember the famous Lewis and Clark? Well, Clark lived there. P residents James Monroe and Andrew Jackson were also guests there.  This weekend, in addition to the Jane Austen festival, there is also a naval encampment reenactment. If you want to take a tour through history in rl rather than in sl, this is the place!

Forgive me if I've posted this in the wrong spot. I just thought my fellow history and/or literature enthusiasts might want to know about the event.
