Day 44 Graceland













When we left his father's office we headed to the Trophy Building here we would see walls and walls of his achievements from platium albums to gold albums to golden boot awards, Elvis did it all and was awarded for it all, he was truly an entertainer, although he wanted to be an actor. But we all know we loved his music to much to let him not share his voice with the world forever. There were even cheques he had written to power bills ect. that you can see he actually wrote and signed hiself. There are lots of his clothes he wore on stage all the glitter Elvis loved he did not care what people thought if he liked it he wore it or bought it as Pricilla says. You can see Elvis's and Pricilla's wedding atire as well, her dress was very simple for todays standard but beautiful for the err she wore it in, and their wedding picture along with a picture of Pricilla and Lisa Marie (what a cutie she was).

You will notice outside the backside of the house is a car port Elvis had a lot of cars to park, we were also told that he loved tractors, his old old tractor was restored by a college in Memphis and it is in the museum across the street. Looks like a brane new John Deere now, we were told that when he saw a bunch of people at his gate he would sometimes go down to the gate either on horseback or on a tractor to sign autographs, that would of been so neat to see and to get an autograph WOW.
