Mempheast

We completed the journey to Memphis this morning in grand fashion. Only 2 stops, no tornados, three states, cheap gasolinera.

We are so happy to be here....we can feel our shoulders relaxing after a week on the road. Here we will settle for three nights with the good ol' Watsons of Fresno lore.

Tonight, we ate BBQ, Memphis style. It was a feast. Ribs (wet and dry), slaw, beans, rolls and sweet tea. We think we will have it again for breakfast and lunch and maybe three more dinners. If we drove 3,000 miles for tonight's dinner, it was worth it.

Please tell the Watsons hello for me.

I randomly ran into Eric and Lori today in Pasadena. It was awesome. Visalia sounds nice in the winter time...
