New to Memphis List

The Memphis To Do List that I compiled after moving here.  To develop this list, it required months of asking every person I met, "What's your favorite place in Memphis?"  It also required me to try some of the places and know they don't make the list.  I thought I'd share the list for anyone who wants to visit me.      wink
