Graceland Basement

My parents are on their way down to Texas. I got the following update from my Mom:

We spent 4 hours at Graceland and am embarrassed to say, really enjoyed it. The house itself was a tribute and a memorial to his life, music and movies and was done very tastefully. The house is not very big and was left decorated as it had been in the 60s and 70s and Dad fell in love with the TV room and now wants to do the basement in navy blue and yellow with a mirrored ceiling, shag rugs, sparkly cushions and a bank of 3 TVs. His cars and aeroplanes were also pretty cool. Rest of it was pretty tacky as expected. ie Elvis mugs, purses, ashtrays etc etc, you could even have your own beaded jumpsuit for $2,100.
