Trip To Tennessee - Part I

Our long anticipated trip to Memphis finally arrived.  We left California on May 9th to spend over a week in Tennessee.  Kyle & Emily don't actually live in Memphis. They live in Horn Lake, Mississippi, but it is just outside Memphis and it is easier to say we went to Memphis -- after all, that was where we spent the most time sight-seeing.

One of our first stops was to visit Graceland.  After all, you can't go to Memphis and not see Graceland even if you are not an Elvis fan.  Here are some pics from there.

Award/Trophy Room


Weird - green carpet on walls and ceiling

Media Room


Family Room


Bedroom


Some of his outrageous costumes

Burial Spot


His Private Jet



Another thing we did in Memphis was a Mississippi River Cruise on this boat

One interesting fact - The Tennessee/Arkansas border is mid river so we actually were in Arkansas on this trip as well.


A little fun on the way back to the car
