walking in memphis

cheesy song lyrics aside (did i just get them stuck in your head? sorry! ...not.), we spent the majority of our short time in memphis walking around the downtown area. chilly weather or not, it was shocking to see how few people were out and about! memphis really feels like it's been deserted, so it was very surprising to learn it is the 19th largest city, by population, in the united states! the weather was beautiful and we had a lot of fried chicken to walk off, so we hit up some of the city's most important landmarks (the lorraine motel, sun studio, some hoarder's antique store on front street, etc) and ended up - shockingly, i know - on beale street for some blues.
