After months of anticipation we finally closed on the Yorkshire property yesterday. I'm going to spare you the details but let me just say that after almost three hours at closing yesterday we are very Very VERY excited to have the whole process finalized. Now that we no longer have the responsibility of a second property Stuart and I can focus on our own house!
After a stressful day we had exciting evening plans that included dinner at our favorite Mexican place in Louisville, Santa Fe. Which just happens to be right across from my old apartment near Churchill Downs. (Sadly the food at Santa Fe doesn't measure up to food available in Santa Fe New Mexico but it's the best we've found locally. Excited for some authentic New Mexican food in August!) After dinner we left Stuart's car at the restaurant and went to Dairy Kastle for some ice cream. We then headed down to Central Park to enjoy Shakespeare in the Park. Santa Fe, Dairy Kastle, and Shakespeare in the park really bring back memories of Summer 2005. Oh how time flies. However, mother nature decided to intrude on my nostalgia. Just before the entertainment began it started pouring down rain, no thunder, no lightening, but then the tornado sirens went off. We really didn't think much of it, after all it was only raining. After about 15 minutes Stuart and I decided to make a run for the car. After a quick phone call to Anna and Kelsey we decide to head to Starbucks at 3rd and Central because it was close to Stuart's car. Of course anyone who knows the area and saw the news last night knows that this was the area hardest hit by the storm. Unintentionally we got a great view of the damage before it started raining. The whole area was without power so we decided to go to Panera on Popular Level road. However it was also dark. By this point we were tired of driving around in the storms and took refuge in Stu's parents basement. We had fun despite the fact that the weather doppler is much less entertaining than Shakespeare!
