Recently I received Stanley in the mail from my nephew Michael Petersen. Stanley is a flat man that Michael has been reading about in school. Stanley took a trip to Memphis in the mail to visit us. This is what he saw wile in Memphis.

Remember all the pictures are thumb nailed so you can click on them to see better!!!

 

Well I received Stanley on Tue July 05 at 1347 Wilbec     

 

 We went to the Bank, Navy Federal Credit Union, to finance the trip around Memphis . You know those gas prices are horrible.

 

After we got are gas and lunch money, we went to Graceland .

 

 

We saw Elvis's plane the Lisa Marie .

 

 

Then we saw Graceland were Elvis once lived        .

In this picture  you can see Stanly in front of the wall that is around Graceland. A lot of people sign this wall, and it seemed as if Stanley wanted to but we were rushed for time.

 

We headed downtown, and on the way passed some train yards   . You know Memphis is the home to FedEx, and one of the shipping capitals of the US. This is because we are located in the middle of the country and have a major river beside our town.  

 

After that we were off to the River .

 

We took a slow drive down Riverside drive toward Beale St. see pics                                                           .

In this picture you can see the Pyramid, this is the home of the Memphis Grizzly’s basket ball team, until the get the FedEx forum in this picture finished being built. Next we drove down Beale St. this is ware you go to hear Blues.

 

Memphis is the home of the blues and in this picture  you can see BB King’s ( a famous Blues singer) restaurant.

 

this is our downtown buildings, we are a much smaller city than Dallas.

 

This picture is of the AutoZone Park were the Redbirds play, they are the minor league for the Saint Louse Cardinals. We are also the home to the large chain of auto part stores know as AutoZone.

As we headed home we saw one of the downtown trolley stations

 

 

We then took more pictures as we drove home along Riverside drive, before getting on the freeway (I-55, and I-40). I55, andI40 are the main highways though Memphis. 

 

All in all Stanley seemed to have fun on his trip, and is welcome back any time…
