The view of the Mississippi was inspirational to say the least and all the people were extremely nice I caught the sunset just in time

My mom and I have been to the Tom Lee Park and that’s where the Beale Street Music Festival is being held every month of May. And we saw my favorite singer Alanis Morissette.

Tom Lee Park is a safe family friendly park located on the shore of the great Mississippi River . Check out the new Beale Street landing and take pics of the Memphis Bridge .

Official site of Memphis in May every year. A great location for an entire month of events but finding somewhere to park nearby may be a problem...

A very good and awesome place to stroll by the mighty Mississippi River By The Way.
