This past week we traveled to Memphis, TN for two days. This is the memphis skyline taken while on a riverboat ride on the Mississippi River...very cool!
Island Queen
Other things we went to see were:
The famous duck walk at the Peabody Hotel.
This is the Lorraine Motel where Dr King was shot and killed.
The National Civil Right Museum is now attached to it.
And, of course we had to eat Bar B Q on famous Beale Street!
But the highlight was GRACELAND!
Home of Elvis.
He won so many awards.
And the costumes- strictly Elvis! So glad we got to see this!
Next day we crossed the Mississippi and headed for Little Rock, Arkansas. Met up with a high school friend and his wife and had a wonderful visit with them and a delicious catfish and bar b q lunch. So good to see friends and spend time together! Thanks Tom and Brenda!
The next day, we visited the Bill Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock.
Very impressive.
Here is Alan saving the free world from the oval office.
We then took the trolley to the River Market where you can walk over the Arkansas River on a bridge
We are staying out in Hot Springs at a great RV park on Lake Hamilton!
Love, love this spot. We have had three days of relaxing and enjoying the beauty of this place.
These are pictures of the restored old baths in Hot Springs National Park.
Beautiful with the140 degree water still running!
Tomorrow we head for Texas! It has been a terrific week!
Bye for Now!
Love the pictures! Having another Lincoln in the Oval Office may be just what this country needs!!!
