Finding Beauty in the Little Things

Walking in Memphis

After an exciting trip to Nashville, we were off to Memphis.

I was excited to get to Memphis. The first time I came here, I was blown away by the music and the "tone" of the city. Nashville is great for parties and barhopping, but the music is cookie-cutter. You might as well listen to the radio. Memphis on the other hand, you won't find better sounds anywhere! There's so much passion and soul in every bar on Beale Street. 

We love traveling during Christmas time; nothing is ever busy. One of our favorite trips ever was to Atlantic City in the middle of winter. This one was no different. Even the world-famous Beale Street was basically dead, but the music was still playing!

We ended up staying at another KOA because of its proximity to the city. This campground wasn't as fancy as the one in Nashville, but it wasn't a big deal, we were here for the city anyway. After giving LunaBear her dinner and tucking her in for the night, we headed off to Memphis.

Luckily, we found a parking spot that was close to all the good stuff. Last time I was in Memphis, we got a few drinks at a place called The Flying Saucer. I remembered they had like 70 beers on tap, so what better place to start! Surprisingly, it was pretty busy, but the beer was good. We had a couple and made our way to Beale Street. Along the way, we found an interesting pizza shop that we just had to get a picture in front of.

As we were walking with our "feet ten feet off of Beale," we grabbed some roadside "Big Ass Beers" and took in the city before making our way to BB King's Blues Club for some dinner.


Just as we got seated, a new band started setting up on stage. It was gonna be a good night! The minute they started playing, we knew Memphis was the place to be if you want good music. They ROCKED!!! They were playing originals, covers, crazy guitar solos, harmonicas and organs wailing; it was just so much fun and very different from Nashville. We enjoyed our meals and sat there for probably two hours. It was so much fun!

We would have had a cool souvenir "Beale Big Ass Beer" glass but in all the excitement, we forgot it on the table of the club....

We made it back to the trailer after a wonderful night, ready to continue our journey the next morning.
