Memphis in the meantime...

Now I have that song stuck in my head 'cause I've been planning a trip tonight. I have a business meeting in Memphis in a couple of weeks so I decided to go a few days early and 'do' the Delta Blues Trail thru Mississippi. I leave 11/7 - Saturday morning ... and return 11/14.

Saaturday night I am staying at the Clark House B&B in downtown Clarksdale. I plan to drive straight to Clarksdale from the Memphis airport. I will hang out in downtown Clarksdale Saturday night and then Sunday continue my journey.... well, after I visit the Delta Blues Museum of course.

I can't wait to stay Sunday and Monday nights here:
http://www.shackupinn.com/ I booked the Cadillac Shack. Love it! Check it out... it is so ME!

I will spend the first 3-4 days driving around Mississippi visiting the blues landmarks. I must be back in Memphis sometime Wednesday... Thursday morning at the latest.

I haven't booked any rooms for Tuesday and Wednesday night. I may find myself at a CASINO! I'm open for suggestions.

OF COURSE I will be spending a day at Graceland!

While in Memphis I also plan to go to:

  • The Civil Rights Museum
  • Gibson Guitar Factory
  • Sun Studio
  • WC Handy Home
  • Elmwood Cemetery (they are wonderful arboretums!)
