The Crystal Shrine Grotto is a large man-made crystal cave hidden in the middle of Memorial Park…read moreCemetery in East Memphis. It was started in the 1930s by Mexican sculptor Dionicio Rodríguez and is covered with tons of quartz crystals, religious sculptures and biblical scenes depicting the life of Jesus as well as grottos, bridges, and concrete landscapes. After crossing into the cave you'll find scenes depicting: - The Nativity - The Last Supper - The Resurrection - Various Old and New Testament stories And it's all illuminated by colored lights reflecting off the crystal-covered walls. It's one of those things you have to see to fully appreciate and it's absolutely worth a visit. Admission is free and it's easy to find once in the cemetery (there's plenty of signs pointing the way) and parking is easy. Definitely don't miss this if you're in Memphis. Pro Tip: it's located near the grave of soul music legend Isaac Hayes so if you're into music history you may want to package the two stops together.

Second Yelp night out! Thanks so much for the tickets! I…read morelearned alot about whiskey that night but...I forgot it all...darn that whiskey!!! I tasted the Piehole first and I know I said the Larceny 92 proof would be my last. Then I saw the second table of whiskey and gave in to the strawberry one since my soul was on fire from the Larceny still. What two whiskeys I had inbetween I can't remember. That Piehole was to die for though! Pecan Pie Whiskey?!?! I usually gag at the thought flavored whiskey but man that stuff was good. If you want to get a party started the quickest way would be the Larceny though haha. DONUTS. I came in knowing my favorite: Howard's all the way!!! But I found a new favorite: Jody's Donuts. The ladies from Jody's were so awesome (the only people I saw from the respective donut places) and I knew immediately that I had to ask about the one with bananas on it. They sold me on it and just when I regretted taking it, I took a bite and went into Elvis/doughnut/childhood memory nirvana. Gotta go by their shop now! Gibson's were actually on point that night even though I am usually the hated one in Gibson's debates.

And since I missed majority of those shots, I suppose I am! Did you guys noticed that the Yelp panties are perfect for spider man cosplay? Who's going to be my Peter while I be your Mary Jane? Did Deanna just pack a whole box of donuts home? Above statements were part of the saved draft... So, I guess I had fun last night! Those pecan pie tasting whiskeys are killer. I'm also very happy that I tried donuts from 3 different vendors and donut holes from 2. Unfortunately, Gibson's took the crown and run away with it. Gibson's donuts are the best. Rec Room is awesome. I can't think of a better location for an event like this. Whiskey, donuts, and video games! Generation Y, represent!

For fans of the Blues this is the legendary intersection of Highways 61 and 49 where blues musician Robert Johnson reputedly sold his soul to the Devil for musical mastery. Hell maybe even Keith Richards sold his soul as well but can't confirm. When you arrive it's marked by a monument of three HUGE blue guitars and sign. Forest Gump say's it is a major blues tourism site. OK, for some history or background the legend goes according to folklore, Robert Johnson, a young bluesman, met a stranger at this spot who took his guitar, tuned it, and returned it, enabling him to play with supernatural skill. Man the devil is real cause it worked ! Now after you sold your soul to Beelzebub stop over to ABE'S BBQ for some " Q "and soul food.. It was worth the journey to see Crossroad and grab a bite... Time to find an Exorcist for soul recovery cause FRANK sold his soul. I was kinda stoned so forgive me folks and it seemed like the thing to do at the moment...

It is an interesting stop and would be rather unassuming without the sign. I love coming across these little tidbits of Americana and they definitely make my trips much more interesting and make my trip more delightful. If you are in the area, I would recommend coming here and seeing where an urban legend was born. Was Robert Johnson here and, if so, did he broker a deal with the Devil under a moon? I just found this a cool place to visit.

It's next to the old Jackson rail station which must have been a busy spot up until the 1950s. It's hard to imagine that the water from the well has been flowing continuously for over 100 years. It has a strong sulphur odor and I didn't taste it due to the "untreated" warning but I remember doing it as a kid and not liking the taste. Make sure to visit the railroad museum next door if it's open.

The vibe was upscale and elite, and the service was timely and attentive! The notes I have are solely regarding the dishes we ordered. My boyfriend and I split the Honey Gem salad, which was perfectly balanced and had delicious, sweet profiles. We then ordered the Chicken of the Sea Pizza, which was very questionable. Essentially, the pizza was just round garlic bread with a 3oz mound of sushi-grade tuna in the middle. The cold, raw tuna atop hot, oily cheese was not the combination I was expecting nor enjoyed (I was expecting cooked tuna, and for the pizza to lean more on an Asian flavor focus). This pizza was supposed to have a green goddess sauce/drizzle, but was unfortunately missing. I was hoping the sauce would help to round out the odd flavor pairings.

The moment we walked in, we were surrounded by colorful treats and nostalgic vibes that made the whole experience fun and lighthearted. He chose the espresso cookies n cream ice cream on a waffle cone, and I went with the classic cookies n cream on a waffle cone. Both were creamy, flavorful, and honestly hit the spot perfectly. We also grabbed a bag of their fruit slice candies in a mix of flavors, and they were so soft, fresh, and perfectly coated in sugar. Each piece had a bold, juicy flavor that made it hard to stop snacking. We couldn't believe we only spent $15 for such a cute and satisfying treat. After ordering, we took our cones and candy and enjoyed a peaceful walk around the square, just talking and enjoying each other's company. It felt simple, romantic, and refreshing all at the same time. We're definitely coming back again and next time, we're bringing the babies so they can experience the magic too.

It has an amazing Bridge soaring over it with a cool pyramid that reminds me of the Luxor in Las Vegas but it's actually a basspro shop. It wasn't always. There's also some good food in Downtown Memphis - for example one of the best taco shops (Maciel's) that ever eaten at anywhere in the country, which is crazy because it actually looked like it was going to be a little bit Westernized but it was amazing. There's a huge and very good burger. Hattie B's hot chicken sandwich is amazing. It's a local chain, one here, lots in Gnash-your-teeth-ville. There's some excellent fried chicken and some good barbecue and a lot of other Delights to be had in these parts. Knock yourself out. No literally. Here's a hammer bro.

Dismuke graduated from the University of Mississippi with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with an emphasis in sculpture. He now lives in Oxford. We're not far from Ole Miss (the university) and I would gather that is significant in the name. From the artist's statement, "Victory Dance II is a celebration of victories, both big and small. Each work in this series is made of rings. Rings are symbolic of relationships. Our relationships play a huge role in our success. The rings are welded together to symbolize connection. We are all connected. The circles depict movement and appear to be dancing in a celebratory way." [Review 2290 of 2024 - 111 in Mississippi - 23305 overall]
