I took a trip to Texas over the weekend, and we passed thru Memphis, TN, in which you will find...

It was about 7am when we rolled into Memphis, and Graceland didnt open till 10am, but I was able to take this pic of The King's customized Convair 880, the Lisa Marie, which is parked outside the gates. It was nicknamed "Hound Dog One" and Elvis refered to it as "The Pride of Elvis Presley Airways" or "Flying Graceland."

Here's a pic of the King himself coming off the plane:

I'm not a huge Elvis fan, but I have some friends that are, so I mainly took these for bragging rights. This was the first time I've been thru Memphis so I had to stop by and see it just so I can say that I've been there
