Pewee Valley and Little Central Park

In an enchanting village called Pewee Valley is a new park called Little Central Park located on .....Central Ave. It is also home to a local theater and the prison where my daughter and son in law work.

Pewee Valley is "The Land of the Little Colonel", thus the namesake of our theater. But who is the Little Colonel? She was a local girl who became the basis of a popular series of books set in Pewee Valley and written by local author Annie Fellows Johnson. Shirley Temple played the Little Colonel in the classic movie based on the books.


Remember watching that movie.  It was a favorite. 


Getting ready to start out - my shadow in boxing.


Doesn't look like much but there are flowers planted all around the circumference of the brick walkway. 



 a waterfall that is right against a mural painted wall.  Very creative



 Gazebo because every park needs one.


 Across the street - site of the first post office.


 What Pewee Valley is know for. 






It was a challenge finding a good hiding spot -- all along the perimeter at the rear of the park 
where one would think you would find a good spot., was covered with poison ivy.
