FUN, FUN, FUN!!! That's what this first day has already been. Laughing, talking, just being together in the car for 5 hours!
Once on the road the time seemed to fly by. Even Missouri seemed to go by quickly. (Probably because I was quizzing Marsha on her "vocabulary words" for a big test she's getting ready to take.) It was funny trying to figure out the meaning of the words. Some of them are ridiculous. We were wondering who really talks like that and uses those words instead of the common words? Crazy!!!
Once we arrived in Memphis, we checked in to our hotel and then walked up the street for a better view of the gates to Graceland. After this we checked out a highly recommended place to eat - Marlow's. WoW!!! I can see why it was highly recommended! The BBQ was fabulous, the service was awesome, and the atmosphere was wonderful! There were even waiters singing Elvis songs and customers dressed (and looking) like Elvis singing along.
Tomorrow is Graceland! Then 7 hours to Dallas. On the way to Dallas, we are stopping in Mt. Pleasant so I can meet up with an old friend. Actually, Bruce was one of my best friends in high school and I haven't seen him in probably 30 years!
Should be an very eventful day and lots of picture opportunities!!! (Oh yeah, we brought Flat Stanley with us. That's him at Marlow's at the top of the page!)
