after much prompting and pressuring, i'm continuing on

how long have i been gone? they've gone and messed with the setup options for this blog and it's not easier.

last month, seven of us went on a big-passenger-van-family-vacation through tennessee and missouri, with drives through arkansas and kentucky.

we stayed in memphis. i did not see jason lee, because they shoot 'memphis beat' in new orleans!

The front door of Graceland

yes, we visited elvis' house, graceland.

we had a great time together. we drove from memphis to branson, mo.

this is on the showboat branson belle, a cruising musical dinner theatre. i'm not sure what's going on with the boy making gang symbols. we did tons of stuff in branson - none of which you were allowed to photograph.

so we move on to springfield. 

here are mom and dad in front of their married dorm at bbc. i actually lived here when i was a toddler.

midge and i posed in front of someone's backyard rubbish at a gas station in arkansas.

in nashville, we stopped at the jars of clay recording studio. nobody home. :(
