Only a few weeks now before we too are visiting Beale Street, can't wait! Looking forward to reading your impressions of Graceland. Love Joan and Mike xx Hi again JO and BOO,

Such a foul-up. At least the Chicago one was more user-friendly. I have never ridden in a sleeping car and always thought it would be a luxury. I discovered how wrong I was when I learned the space for standing was only the size of an 8" x 10" typing paper. What could the designers been thinking of! At least Memphis didn't disappoint. All that Elvis memorabilia. I laughed right out loud at the building placque that said "In 1897 absolutely nothing happened here. It was a great idea for the city to emphasize its major role in the music world by embedding those gold notes in the pavement. I'm enjoying your blogs SO much. Hi, Josie:
