The Countdown Has Started!

It's official folks! My next trip is booked! In a little under a month I will be here...
Anyone care to take a guess? If you guessed...
then you would be correct! I'm so excited to finally be going there! I use to only live a few hours away when I lived in Alabama but never made the trip up and seeing as how I go to Nashville and Pigeon Forge a lot, it's shocking that I've never stepped foot in Memphis. I figure it's about time I made my pilgrimage to the home of the blues and the birthplace of rock n' roll! 

Plus, I'm a huge fan of Elvis (take off the judging hats everyone). He rocked, his music rocked and his jumpsuits rocked even harder! Here's a few of my favorite ones... Needless to say, I'm really excited to see all of it in person! I have a whole dedicated to touring Graceland.
 

Yep, that's right...I just posted about Elvis and my love of the jumpsuit AND I am excited!

    Hope you have fun in Memphis, a few years ago my mom and I went to TN and she loves Elvis too, but we were headed to Nashville and she was so upset she mixed up the 2 cities! I really liked Nashville though and hopefully make it to Memphis one day

    Woot woot! I have been there. Loved it.

    Going on the tour of Graceland is a must. I also enjoyed the BBQ and the downtown music scene.

    We luuuuurve Memphis! Beale Street and Sun Studios and and and!
    Hueys is a great place for burgers and homemade rings....and Blues City Cafe makes THE most incredible Catfish. BB Kings has a great atmosphere and the food isn't bad either. We've been to Memphis a bunch and still haven't hit the Rendezvous. I've heard that they have make awesome ribs. Makes me wish I was going too!! I will look forward to hearing all about it!
