Road Trip Report: Bouncing Into Graceland

Sunset over Memphis

Chicago to Memphis. Memphis to Bay St. Louis. Bay St. Louis to my best good friend Bubba's farm in Yazoo City. Yazoo City to Graceland with Bubba, and back. The Delta to the Crescent City, where I met up with Crime Boy. And then home.

An amazing, awe-inspiring journey.

Here are a few snapshots from a grace-filled trip.

For reasons I cannot explain

There's some part of me wants to see

Graceland,

And I may be obliged to defend

Every love every ending

Or maybe there's no obligations now,

Maybe I've a reason to believe

We all will be received

In Graceland
