Crossing Elvis Presley Blvd on our way to the airport
The old airport is situated across Winchester from Memphis International. I thought I would be able to get some interesting images from inside the building - I was in there a few years ago and saw some old pictures from Memphis' early aviation days- but it was a bit of a disappointment. Here is the entrance, anyway.
The roof on a hangar shows damage from the storm that hit Memphis a couple of weeks ago
After a final look at the control tower at Memphis airport, we kept going west on Winchester.
Waiting for the next bus.
Saturday shopping
This far south and west feels like a suburb or sheer country, although it really is part of Memphis city.
Heading north again
I don't know the exact nature of this service
I meant to take a better photo of this scenery, but a man was standing in my way all the way through our red light at this crossing
The same house from a little bit different angle, we had to go, we had a green light. What is amazing to me though, is that I never saw the big red sign when I took the snapshot above. I only saw it when I came home and as you can see, the sign is gone here, just a few seconds after the previous picture
The neighborhoods, perhaps contradicted by the sign I previously mentioned, have an air of resignation here.
Not Walmart, really
Some charred remains, just dumped on the sidewalk
This looks better ( we are getting closer to downtown Memphis, too).
