I’m in Memphis for the first time ever! It’s amazing! Please come here, everybody! We got the Graceland Platinum tour and it was worth every penny. There was the added bonus of Elvis’ 75th birthday on January 8, so there were lots of cards and things. Want to see some of my Graceland photos? Of course you do!

- Just chillin’ in front of Graceland. Elvis’ butt could have sat where I sat!!! AIEEE!!

- Blonde Elvis

- The upstairs, where we were not allowed to go. Elvis didn’t want people up there

- The kitchen looked totally normal

- The TV room was RADICAL

- There were a surprising amount of these monkeys around

- We had headsets that told us the story of Graceland

- Boys, please take note: I like this suit

- Oh wait, I like this one better

- KA-POW!!!

- Just for you, I will

- What I wouldn’t give for a headline like that to be written about me

- An almost eerie likeness

- An early form of a Facebook group

- I’m in awe

- He’d be a cool dad

- TOTALLY!

- Trying not to touch

- I shouldn’t have been smiling

- Someone left this BA Johnston likeness for Elvis

- Indeed
So what was the final consensus on Graceland?

KIDDING! It was great.
Now I am off to eat some ribs.

These are awesome, Steph!
I love the photo’s, they are super. Thank you
Glad you had such a memorable time! There’s NOTHING like being an Elvis fan, going to his Graceland & experiencing the perspecitive of Memphis from Elvis view. I like your sense of humor, as evidenced in the titles with each photo. Thanks!
you better have gone to the cozy corner for ribs
i TOTALLY went to cozy corner. and got covered in BBQ sauce. but it was worth it.
Every photo is AMAZING!
One concern: is Memphis cold?
it was like 8 degrees. not exactly the southern warmth i had envisioned.
