Northern Ky Bar hopping

I decided to skip cutting my grass today and went down to River Downs and bet on some ponies. they were kind to me. So I decided to do some bar hopping in Covington and Newport Ky. I went down to the Derby Cafe , which was Orr's Cafe/Tavern and it was boarded up. I think the whole block will be razed for new constuction. Decided to wander over to Newport. Went to the West Side Cafein Newport and got some good leads on some bar tokens from Highland Hieghts. then stopped down at Bobby Mackey's on Licking pike.That used to be the Latin Quarter. The bar tender let me shoot some photos of the old casino area where the cashiers cage was. then I went down Liking Pike to the Knotty Pine and got some good info for my Ky token project. Their gumbo is to die for. Lots of beer and talked to a lot of neat people. the photo is from the old Latin Quarter. Maybe only Gene knows what I'm talking about.
