Waverly Hills Sanatorium









We had a blast! I am a little disgruntled about a few things however.

First, it was a 2 hour tour. So we assumed we would be walking around touring the place for two hours. Wrong. They made us watch a half hour video first about the background of Waverly and it also included clips from some of the more popular ghost hunting shows. Since Dan and I are both die-hard Waverly fans, we had already seen these clips. Then they gave everyone a little break to use the bathroom and such. By that time, it was 10:45. So it roughly worked out to be 15 minutes in the body chute and 20 minutes per floor. In my opinion, not enough time.

Second, the group size was a lot larger than when I went back in 2003. Yes, I know ghost hunting has gotten more popular since then. I get it. But when you have that many people, in that short amount of time everyone wants to take photos and see as much as they can. Once again, I understand. The problem with that though is that someones flash was going off every ten seconds or so. I pretty much saw stars the whole time I was there from getting blinded so much.

On my next visit I will definitely be doing the 8 hour overnight.
Less people + more time = happy Jen.

p.s. Check out all those orbs!!!

Checking In

Hey all! I haven't checked in lately cause I've been on my vacation in Louisville with Dan. I'd like to say things have gone smoothly and all is well, except I came down with Strep on Tuesday and I'm just now feeling better. Booo. We drove all the way up to Cincinnati to go to the zoo and ended up leaving really early because I was so sick. So not fun. I ended up going to an urgent care center Wednesday night and the doc there was really nice and actually gave me some antibiotics so I didn't have to dish out extra money for that since I don't have insurance. Yesterday we spent the day at Churchill Downs. I ended up winning almost $70! Woo hoo! Go ponies! Right now we're sitting in Starbucks and I'm stealing some wi-fi. Off to Waverly tonight! I'll have pics posted on Sunday.

Hope you lovelies are doing well!

Field Trip!


Dan booked our visit to Waverly this week.
I.cannot.wait.
It's been seven or eight years since I've been and frankly, that's way too long.
We're going in June so it will be perfect weather to go enjoy some other things while we're in the Louisville area.


We plan on taking a day and heading up to the Cincinnati Zoo. I think the last time I went was for a school field trip in eighth grade.


We'll also hit up Churchill Downs. Love the ponies. Love, love, love. They also have a really nice museum that traces the history of the track.


And of course, we'll probably spend one evening strolling through the Waterfront and end up at Joe's.
June can't get here soon enough!
