Graceland, the home of Elvis in Memphis, TN, a national historical landmark, and one of the most bizarre locations that I have ever been. How strange to walk through someone’s home and to see it so perfectly frozen in time. Above all, it was not grandness that fascinated, but rather, simplicity. The simplicity of what once was considered grand and the simplicity of what once was.

Five hours, a long drive, a short trip, a small town in New Jersey. The distance always seems great, but upon traveling for a mere piece of a day, it’s clear that it is not great at all. Five, four, three, two, one, next door; what else is there waiting?
