The Mississippi delta was shining
Like a national guitar
I am following the river
Down the highway
Through the cradle of the civil war
I'm going to Graceland
Graceland
In Memphis, Tennessee
I'm going to Graceland
Poor boys and pilgrims with families
And we are going to Graceland
My traveling companion is nine years old
He is the child of my first marriage
But I've reason to believe
We both will be received
In Graceland

Good morning, all. It was on this day that Edward Jenner gave first smallpox vaccination back in 1796, beginning of the end of one of the world's most serious diseases, and the start of the scarring that so many of us wear on our arms. I must have five different smallpox vaccination scars! Better than smallpox anyway, and even if they do show when I wear a bikini, I don't mind.
Taylor's of Harrogate's "English Breakfast" tea this morning, and a couple of deviled eggs beside it. Haven't had them in a while! Then is back to the boxes... filling them, throwing them, filling them, taping them, inventorying them... My world has become a mix of dust, corrugated cardboard, and old memories...
