Moving to Louisville KY - any suggestions?

I am moving to Louisville, KY (wife got big promotion) and am wondering if anyone out there in Zenith land has any suggestions for possible home airports, hangar rental availability, or other Zenith builders in the area.  We're looking at properties on the East side (Anchorage, J-town, etc.) with a little acreage and a building that will allow me to finish assembling my 650.  

Any information, recommendations, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Brian I suspect you're looking for more particular information, but I thought I'd throw out a perspective I recently gained.  I had spent years building my plane at home, no helpers, little guidance other than what was available online.  Now that I'm at the airport I can see what I've been missing.  The friends expertise and help is something I didn't realize I was missing.

Thanks Dan - 

Not really looking for anything necessarily specific - just if there are any smaller airports/airstrips on the East side of Louisville - where a hangar might be rented for a reasonable amount of $$.  I had several options here in the Austin TX area - but now that's all "passe" as they say, and I need to start looking for a home for my bird in Kentucky, and I was hoping maybe there were some Zenith builders/flyers there for me to network with.

Thanks much

Brian

Suggest you contact Jeff Garrett (601/650 forum) who lives in Louisville.
