I've been in Memphis for the last couple days. Well actually I've been driving for the last couple days with a brief stop in Memphis. Emily, Kat and I left Friday night and returned Sunday night. It was 14 hours each way, so we were really only in Memphis for about 20 hours. We went for their dad's retirement / birthday party, which was held at their step-aunt's house. The party was very nice: live band, pool, good weather and catering from the best BBQ restaurant in the city. The drive was pretty uneventful, but very pretty. I expected to see much more rednecks and honky white trash stuff.
