With a 4 and a 1 - is there such a thing as a quiet getaway?

Make no mistake about it...I had to go in secrecy for my protection and reputation...twice, but I cannot deny a god time. Those who needed to know, were informed and gave me grief. I did look over my shoulder constantly for a short bearded gnome named Jerry.

If the weather is nice this weekend you might check out the memphis zoo. I actually prefer this time of year since it seems to keep the memphis wildlife at home and the animals are more active. It would be a good get away without breaking the bank also. They have a log cabin on the back side of the zoo that has gas logs to get warmed up, also a few concessions outside that sells elephant ears, funnel cakes, etc that they fixed on the spot. Seems I remember my kids really enjoyed that as a snack and kept us from eating in the burger place with the rest of masses. Nothing like trying to eat your lunch with the main public bathroom within 50 ft :lol: If you do go, use the cabin as your main rest stop.

Stay in the South Haven area around the hospitals, courtyard, fairfield, etc are a few hotels to chose from and there is the normal franchise eats within a block or two. Plenty of places to choose from if you do not want to eat in the down town area at dark.
