Today
Paul, Renee and I got up early and headed up to Memphis.
It was a beautiful
morning and a beautiful day, sunny and about 80 degrees.
It was a nice drive.
We got to Memphis checked into our room,
then we went to TGI Fridays to get a bite to eat.
Paul
went to check on the job, while Renee and I shopped a bit.
Then we went down to Beale
Street. Beale Street is a great place to take in
Memphis night life. Beale Street is a must-see. Beale street
offers many hot entertainment spots; you can dance to the bands that
play in the open
in Handy Park, or mingle in the night clubs that line Beale
Street.
Beale Street is where the Blues was born and lives on to this day.
We went to a
place called Jillians for some
fun and games, we had a blast
playing video bowling.
Then we went to one of Paul and my favorite spots, the Rum Boogie Cafe
for good music and a delicious sausage and cheese plate.
Then we took
a stroll down Beale, we stopped to check out on of the newest clubs
