Memphis trip

Our very first multi-day trip we rode to Memphis. We've never been there and our aim was to eat BBQ.  We left early afternoon and made it almost to Leichfeid Kentucky. It was a pleasant ride into Southern Indiana, and Kentucky.
Out of Elizabethtown, we took the parkway west until we found a Hatfield inn. I'll always remember that ride. It was dark, and there was a single glowing star low in the western sky. The Hatfield was a clean, comfortable hotel. There were a few fast food places within walking distance. A very good breakfast was served in the morning there at the hotel.
The next morning we continued west until the Land between the Lakes. Then we turned south and drove right through the middle of the river island. The island was heavily wooded. It was a pretty ride, every now and then you caught glimpses of the rivers on either side.
We continued south on Hwy 79 riding through small towns and pretty rural areas down to interstate 40. Then it was on to Memphis.  Of course Beale street was our first stop. Now we faced a tough decision. Where to eat? There are all kind of good eateries within a few blocks. The sweet smell of BBQ permeated the street. Jazz music flowed out of each building.
We decided on Pig on Beale. It was a good choice, but somehow I believe there are no bad choices. The BBQ didn't disappoint. We ordered the trash can lid full of BBQ delicacies. Ribs, brisket, pulled pork, chicken, corn muffins, corn on the cob and beans.
We waddled back to the bike and then rode to Graceland. There is a Harley shop across the street where we got pins and tee  shirts.
It was a fun trip. The weather was beautiful. You could probably spend a day with dinner and a tour of Graceland. Memphis was fun.
