I spent the past weekend in Memphis. A fabulous time. Of course, a large part of the trip revolved around "road food". I'll post details at later dates. I think I want to start a "road food" map of my own with reviews of the places I've eaten on my road trips.
I, once again, loved my stay at hostel and enjoyed being in such an international atmosphere. This weekend visitors included a dozen or so international students from Georgia Tech in town for the Martin Luther King holiday. Students were from Sweden, France, Egypt and other places I can't remember.
I went to First Congregational Church on Sunday morning and experienced a worship service that was.... filled to the brim with worship. Unbelievable. Music that brought tears to my eyes. I'll see if I can find a sample and post here.
South Third Street in Memphis at almost one o’clock in the morning on Saturday is an interesting place to find Mississippi Black Snake Handlers.... Just ask Susie Stanley.

You forgot to mention that your car broke down and your WONDERFUL husband drove 2 hours to haul it back on a trailer!
AND you forgot to mention that you and your sidekick sat in the car in the 16 degree weather and waited for your WONDERFUL husband to get there! We're tough! And there were no cameras at the church parking lot---thank goodness!
It was my first experience with the Mississippi Snake Handler, and one I'm not likely to forget!
So, when's the next trip? I have just a little more stuff to pack than most of you travelers, but I'm ready!
