We started Saturday at a funky little outdoor cafe specializing in --- Vietnamese, Indian, and American soul food??? It was in an old gas station in the gay part of town -- of course.
Then two great afternoon tours of Sun Studios and the Stax Record Co. The evening started with honky tonk and western swing music and ended at Wild Bill's -- a juke joint in a strip mall just north of downtown complete with 32 oz. beers, old ladies with bottles of Crown Royal, zoot suits, felt hats, and gold chains. This is America, and I love it!!
Unfortunately, when we came across the crawdaddy festival on Sunday, we'd been eating ribs for 48 hours and couldn't stomach more food.
Something for next time -- and make it soon!!
