Hanging Out Downtown !
My pictures from the Peabody Hotel Ducks did not turn out...very dark in the lobby and the setting I used to make pictures lighter also was slow motion. Anyway this is all I have for you but the ducks did come down from their "Duck Palace" right on schedule and all is good in Duck-Land !
After the Ducks, we took a tour of the Rock and Soul Museum which was all about how Black and White cultures joined in music dispite the Civil Rights unrest in America. What resulted at Sun and Stax Recording Studios was the music of Al Green, Isaac Hayes, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Charlie Rich and ofcourse Elvis. It was really interesting and we got to listen to all kinds of good songs...Im still singing Love and Happiness in my head as I type this.
Beale Street was next we had a really good BBQ lunch at Blue City Cafe, recommended to us by a local. It was wonderful...their motto "Put Some South In Your Mouth" and we did ! xxoo TML
