Road Trip – Day Twenty-Four – Graceland

We went to Graceland and took the platinum tour. I didn’t get very good photos because they do not allow flash photography. This is Elvis’white living room. This is my favorite The Jungle Room. During the tour a set of headphones gave us information about the King’s life. More jungle room. Jen liked the green […]


Road Trip – Day Twenty-Three – Bealle Street, Memphis

We went to Bealle Street. I have always been a fan of the Blues and thought this should be a stop on our tour. Like a lot of the places we have been it was different than I imagined. It was pretty commercialized as I imagined but had fewer attractions than I thought it would. […]
