Day 6: Memphis to Bowling Green, KY

We began morning by picking up our bike from the Harley dealer. From there we went to Graceland to a Harley dealer there. The house was very busy today as this year marks the 75th anniversary. We found the t-shirts we wanted and those for gifts. We then headed out of Memphis and headed north and east for a very long, hot day. The ride to Bowling Green was uneventful. We made a stop in Jackson TN at the Casey house and railroad depot. There we found a great little restaurant were I got fried catfish, fried okra and hush puppies. Judy got fried chicken, white beans and fried okra. It was a true southern meal and absolutely great. We walked through some of the little stores then headed down the road. Along the way I found a boat outlet.Judy had mentioned the might before that she wanted to look at boats. She did find a pair she liked; so we bought the boats, strapped the to the motorcycle and headed down the road. We hit five o'clock traffic and did the stop
And start slow speed run for about ten miles. It was very hot.traffic naturally thinned put and we headed to Kentucky to find a hotel room for the night.
