Last weekend, Steve and I snuck away for Valentine's Day fun in Memphis...
We stayed in a lovely Downtown hotel on the National Register of Historic Places with original art deco touches around every corner...
We toured some of the city's most famous historic spots including Sun Studio...
We enjoyed unseasonably warm 65 degree weather over long walks on the picturesque Mississippi Riverfront...
We indulged in romantic dinners...
We danced to amazing blues music on the rowdy Beale Street...
We fell in love with GORGEOUS historical architecture...
... and we enjoyed all of the goodies that Memphis is famous for, including the Duck March at the Peabody...
That all being said, NO trip to Memphis is complete without a visit to...
Simpy, you have to do it at least once in your life.
While I had previously visited the Graceland Estate, Steve had never been so a tour was in order. The Colonial Revival mansion is over 17,000 square feet of perfectly-preserved Elvis Presley eccentricities. There are truly no words to describe the Graceland time-capsule.

If seeking a fun weekend getaway from St. Louis, Memphis is a GREAT option. Just 4 hours on I-55 South, the city overflows with history, music, food, and fun!
