Yesterday, my wife and I got our first "Crescent Hill Newsletter" in the mail. It's the March-April 2010 edition, so there's plenty of talk about Easter egg hunts. Because I know you're dying to know, there's also information for a March book discussion about Kate Chopin's "The Awakening" at the Crescent Hill Library (2762 Frankfort Ave.).

A couple of weeks back, I posted a photo of this Walgreens' marque (linked below), which advertised that people could come in off the street to get a swine flu vaccine.
