OY GEVALT ELVIS!

We are heading east from KC and our next stop is Memphis, TN. We found another COE Campground, the Dub Patton COE. A pretty site we had almost to ourselves. We were close to Lake Arktabula...Memphis is a busy place and we mainly wanted to visit Graceland and eat BBQ...not a lot of culture on our minds. (sorry).

 
Our campsite
 
 
Neither Paul nor I were big fans of Elvis...but we still wanted to visit Graceland and after our visit we became fans...we really enjoyed the time we spent there.
 

Elvis was an industry...above are just some of the memorabilia sold to his fans.
A lovely home, but no mansion...
 
More memorabilia
 
 
gold records and albums
 
some of his costumes and posters from Las Vegas and movies
 
The tour included an audio guide which was very informative.
 
 
Elvis' grave
 
 
I got a kick out of these trash bins....
"thank you, thank you very much"....
He was one of a kind
Tally ho,
Cathy
