Tupelo, Mississippi

In Tupelo we visited the boyhood home of Elvis Presley.

Elvis' boyhood home








The church he attended in Tupelo



Inside of the church they had a film about the time 
Elvis sang his first solo in church. They had a screen in the front and on both sides, so felt like you were sitting there in that service.


There was also a very nice museum, but were unfortunately not allowed to take pictures.

Nashville Part 2

Country Music Hall of Fame

















RYMAN THEATER

We were real lucky and got to see the Grand Ole Opry in the Ryman theater.  This was some experience.  It was a live radio show with commercials.  We saw Ricky Skaggs, the Whites, Riders in the Sky, and Jim Ed Brown.
