Down the Street and to the River

After a walk down Beale Street, I wanted to get a quick peek of the Mississippi.

Main Street America?


Along the way, we spotted the trolley running along Main Street. We didn't catch a ride, but after doing some research, I think it's on my Memphis to-do list. The cars are refurbished vintage trolleys, each with its own history. Besides the past, people comment that the Riverfront Loop line is a great way to see downtown and the river.

Ok...I won't say that the view where Beale Street meets Riverside Drive is exquisitive. It certainly wasn't on Saturday, but I love rivers. There's an inescapeable quality to waters, pulled by gravity, merging and finding the lower ground.

And then turn Northeast and downtown stands.
