 I think you'd really dig it Sandy.smile

I gotta tell you tho, I've never seen poorer lookin people than I did like on the bus ride to Graceland, or some of the beggars downtown & on Beale street. THe first day I walked the mile or so from downtown to Beale, and it wasn't pleasant. Took the $1 trolly to and fro after that.

The pictures are great. I've been to Memphis, but it's probably been 20 years. I'm glad you had a good trip and returned safely. smile.gif
