Postcard from STAX and Graceland
Last day in Memphis so we went for a walk around the old town and found a park, not much space for a game of ball.
At the courthouse we found a drill on the steps, funny place to find a drill eh poppysocks?
Mum wanted to visit the stax museum of Soul music so we jumped in the car and went to Soulsville.
While we were waiting for it to open we went for a wee plod. Funny place, the Beauty Parlour is a bit different from the one at the top of our street, no?
In the museum there was a car that belonged to Isaac Hayes the guy who sang Shaft. I think it would be stripped for parts if it was parked at our bit.
A another funny thing we found. A terrible album from a wee lassie fray Rothsey! Who would have known.
they even celebrate sanity paws day with soul
Off in the car again this time to Graceland to see Elvis’s hoose. Before we went in we checked out his Airplane.
Inside was quite plush
Taking Care of Business ….. in a flash.
Next we went to his garage, he had a lot of cars and trikes
He even had two of these
We left and got a bus across to Graceland. The lounge is ok
Moms bedroom was on the ground floor
Dining room was a bit ornate for my taste. You would hate that floor.
Kitchen was Formica heaven, but who has a carpet in the kitchen? That would have to come out.
The bar just didn’t work for me either, revamp.
You would like the snug though lots of cushions to choose from.
The back yard was quite plain not as nice as ours
Now you would like the paddock plenty of space for ball! We would just have to get rid of the horses. Cant have horses in the back.
You can even buy an Elvis jumpsuit here, a jumpsuit is kinda like your equafleece, do you think I would cut a dash up the park in one of these?
Got to go Tink, we have a long drive ahead will drop you a line from Nashville.
Mum and Dad
