What Storm Troopers Do on a Day Off
Saturday, March 12th, 2011My Favorite Things Memphis
Thursday, April 16th, 2009Beale Street Bar: BB King’s Blues Club. Live music, great food and a great atmosphere.
BBQ Restaurant: Everytime I go to Memphis, I am treated to a new BBQ joint. My hands down favorite is Rendezvous in downtown Memphis.
Attraction: Graceland, home of The King.
Sushi Joint: Ryu Sushi Bar. This is conveniently located near one of the largest driving ranges I have ever been to. The food and service is great to boot!
I have visited Memphis dozen’s of times over my life and I never seem to get bored of it.
Favorite Things DC
Sunday, March 22nd, 2009I just got home from my first trip to Washington DC and the trip lived up to my expectations:
Monument: Lincoln Memorial
Building: The Library of Congress – Its elegance is second to none. It was easily the most beautiful building I toured.
Smithsonian Museum: National Gallery of Art - I spent more time in this museum than any other.
Athlete: Pete Sampras- The man who won 14 Tennis Grand Slams was born in DC.
All in all, my three days in DC weren’t even enough time to put a dent in the attractions the city has to offer. I will be planning a return visit in the next couple of years.
Keith’s Travels: Ohio Edition
Monday, April 28th, 2008My employer, SFI, has recently chosen to send me to our Portsmouth, Ohio plant for 3 days a week. This is scheduled to last for 3-4 weeks. The journey is not too bad. I catch a flight out of Little Rock into Cincinnati, then it is a 2 hour drive from there. I have found the people of in the region to be most pleasant. One of the most fascinating things I have seen is the murals that are painted flood walls (which protect the city from the Ohio River.) Here are two of my favorites.
