Located on the Mississippi River, Memphis, Tennessee borders Arkansas just west of the river and Mississippi to our south. Not only known for the world's best barbecue, Memphis also has a really great musical background that is sure to be evident when you are in town. I hope to share a little more local flavor about Memphis to help you decide what to see & do should you decide to come & check us out.
- Pros:Great nightlife & great live music
- Cons:High crime rate
- In a nutshell:More than just the home of Elvis & Graceland

I am looking to take my little brother and son horseback riding this coming weekend in Shelby Farms. I have never riden a horse. What should I expect?
WOO! I'm heading to Memphis for a few days during my trip to the States next year! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!
Great page on Memphis! We're taking our 7 year old son (a big Elvis fan) to see Graceland in July. Thanks for the info on other things to do in Memphis. :-)

Celebrating New Year in a different city sounds like a cool tradition. I'm sure there is way to make it work even when the funds are low. Just wanted to stop by and wish a HAPPY BIRTHDAY-cheers Van
