Memphis Magic: From Graceland to Legendary BBQ

Picture this: music in the air, the smell of barbecue wafting through the streets, and history around every corner. Here's the scoop on our Memphis adventure:

We kicked things off with a pilgrimage to the one and only Graceland. Now, even if you're not the biggest Elvis fan, this place is a must-see. Imagine wandering through the halls of the King's palace, guided by none other than John Stamos himself (well, his voice, at least). Pro tip: snag those tickets early to avoid missing out!

Our home base? The Graceland RV Park & Campground. Okay, it's not the Ritz, but being just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Elvis's pad made it all worth it.

Shoutout to our buddy Jeff for being our tour guide extraordinaire. He showed us the Nashville suburbs and treated us to some killer Cajun eats at The Second Line. Delicious food + good company = a winning combo.

Next up: Sun Studio, the birthplace of rock 'n' roll. Walking through those iconic doors, we could practically feel the music pulsing through the walls. Standing where legends like Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis once stood? Talk about a surreal moment.

Then there's the Lorraine Motel, steeped in history. While we missed out on the museum visit, catching a glimpse of The Peabody Memphis Ducks was a quirky little detour we couldn't resist.

Speaking of The Peabody Memphis, we made sure to arrive early to snag a front-row seat for the Duck March. Trust me, it's worth arriving early for. And don't leave without trying the South's Grand – the Peabody's signature drink.

Now, let's talk barbecue. Rendezvous is where it's at. This place has been serving up mouthwatering dry-rubbed ribs since 1948, and let me tell you, they know what they're doing.

To wrap up our Memphis adventure, we took a late-night drive along Mud Island, soaking in the sights and sounds of the city under the stars.

From rock 'n' roll legends to finger-lickin' good eats, Memphis sure knows how to leave a lasting impression. Memphis – keep the music playing and the barbecue smoking!

Until next time, keep spinning the wheel of adventure!

Happy RVing!
