Road to Memphis

Last night, we made a return trip to the Arch to get night pics of it all lit up. We were successful in getting the pictures, but unsuccessful in getting the super moon, due to the rain. We were so hopeful on Friday, but Saturday, brought rain.

This morning, we were up again, checked out the Lafayette neighborhood, where there were some beautiful old houses. We also stopped off the Grant's house/farm, where he lived before becoming President.

After Grant's House, it was off to Memphis. We arrive in plenty of time to head down to Beale Street, famous for the Blues. There is a Mardi Gras type atmosphere even on a Sunday night. We checked out a few of the clubs, had some yummy BBQ at Pig and headed home.

Tomorrow we have a big day planned, Graceland in the morning, then back to Beale Street for some of the historical sites.
