When I was in Memphis in 2002 as part of my Remember the Alamo Tour,
I opted to skip the whole Graceland thing, honestly, because Tubby and
I didn't care. But with Robin along for the ride, who knew that "TCB"
meant "taking care of business," I knew we were in for a different
sort of trip. (And apologies -- the picture quality varies because no
flash photos were allowed, anywhere; no video or audio recording, either.)
And so I arriveth, the mecca of Elvis and rock 'n roll
fans alike.
Talk about larger than life. But it was something to look at while
waiting in the ticket line.
Waiting for our house tour, we did the auto museum tour; here are
a few of his motorcycles.
Elvis had this purple Cadillac for a few years before it passed
hands, and finally ended up back here.
We then went to a memorabilia museum; not big, not fascinating to
me, but here ya go.
Then, off to the planes Elvis owned. This one is the Lisa Marie,
named after his only daughter.
