Elvis Has Left the Building

Here we are inside Graceland, the living room below kept as it was in the 1970s. Check out the stained-glass windows and baby grand piano! Elvis's grave is a pleasant memorial laid around water, but you also learn that he is buried alongside his parents, Vernon and Gladys Presley, and his maternal grandmother. I was surprised to learn they died in reverse natural order, with the older members living the longest! Elivs, of course, died young...


Here's the famous TV room where Elvis would watch 3 TVs at once!

The greatest extrvagance Elvis ever took part in was to fly his jet plane the "Lisa Marie" half way across the country for bacon and PB and J baguettes!
