Got back last night, all my free time was during the evening so I didn't have a lot of sightseeing. But holy crap, I think I ate more red meat last week then I have in the last three months. (It got to the point that I was ordering salads for lunch.) But the BBQ was indeed amazing. Everything museum was closed when we rolled around but I got to see the Lorraine Motel (pics). They've actually converted the whole thing into the National Civil Rights Museum (which even has it's own 24-7 protestor). For the most part, I just hung out on Beale Street with friends and listened to music. If you ever end up in Memphis (I don't know why you would, but hypothetically...), spend some time there. There are a ton of bars and each of them boasts "the best" live music (some of them fulfill on that promise) and the BB King All-stars are the proverbial shit! There's also a Coyote Ugly, but from what I heard...they're living up to the 'Ugly'. The crappiest part was the fact that BB King himself was going to play in the club the evening that we left.
Considering I haven't taken any vacation this year, the evenings made for a nice relaxer.
