Our time here in Memphis has been wonderful thus far. Earlier this week Parker and I attended the annual BBQ at the Target House. This amazing facility supports the children and families that are undergoing long term treatment at St. Jude Children's Hospital. We met some wonderful children and were truly inspired by by their strength and courage. I think they even gave Parker some pointers on his golf game.
Another highlight off the golf course was our experience with the Fed Ex Flight Simulator! All I can say is "buckle up"! It felt so real. Parker and I were able to get into the simulators where they train the Fed Ex pilots. Parker and I both had the opportunity to fly the plane. I felt confident in my take off but had a very rough landing, I believe that my plane ended up off the runway in the grass. Parker was much better at the landing. We were able to program the simulator to take off and land in Paris and Honolulu! It was so much fun. Our memories from Memphis would not be complete without including a little bit of BBQ! During our stay we tried two amazing BBQ spots including Corky's and Rendezvous. Both were outstanding, each with their own twist on the BBQ.
