Mike & I on Beale St. after enjoying some blues at BB King's Blues Club

Mike & I spent the last 3 days in Memphis, TN! We had some buddy passes tht were about to expire and we wanted to go somewhere we had never been. We decided on Memphis mostly for the BBQ and the music. It was so nice to get away with no kids and no definite plans. We were able to sleep in (that was almost the best part of the trip) and just have fun and enjoy time without kids and the daily stresses of life to worry about. We visited the Rock -n- Soul Museum and learned about the rich musical heritage of our country that all started there in Memphis. We visited the Gibson Guitar Factory and I learned a lot about guitars and how they are made. We saw the ducks at the Peabody Hotel, they are like celebrities there (they even walk the red carpet twice a day). We visited Beale St where there are like 20+ different clubs to hear blues, soul, and rock -n- roll. We ate BBQ, that is pretty much all we ate the whole trip. We visited a museum on the Mississippi all about the Mississippi. We saw an armadillo in the wild. We went to Arkansas and Mississippi as well. We played some blackjack. We listened to some Blues at BB King's Blues Club. We had a great!!!!!!!!!!! trip to Memphis and look forward to going back again, next time when it is a little warmer outside and we can go on a riverboat cruise.
