Beale Street - After a busy morning at Graceland we drove through Memphis in search of Beale Street. With its blues clubs and brilliant neon signs, it is the heart of downtown Memphis' tourist district, and the place to go for souveniers. So we didn't want to miss it....We were surprized at how compact it is - it's really just a couple of blocks along Beale - so it's easy to hit all the stores in just a short time. We stopped into B.B. King's Club and listened to the soulful sounds of the band. B.B.King, the King of the Blues, who has seen the rise, fall and rebirth of of Beale Street, started here in the 1940's.
This is a picture of Beale Street this afternoon. |
Dinner tonight - #2 of Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives - Tom's BBQ We decided to try his famous Rib Tips - and we have to say Guy was right again - they were awesome!! |
Doesn't look like much from the outside, but the ribs were sure good!! |
