Back in October, Susan took a trip out to California. You may have read a quick summary about it a few posts ago, but one thing Susan didn't tell you about was her layover. The best layover ever! "What?! How can a layover actually be a GOOD thing??" That might be what you're wondering, but it's true. And if you look at the following photo, you might see why.

Have you ever had a layover in Memphis? This was Susan's first time and she sincerely hopes it's not her last. The minute you step out of the jet way into the airport your senses are accosted by one of the most delicious smells in the entire world. BBQ. Not just any BBQ, but FANTASTIC BBQ. She asked one of the locals which restaurant in the airport had the best BBQ and it seems there are two competing restaurants (fast food chains, really). The "best" (according to one local) didn't have a restaurant in our terminal, so Susan settled for "2nd best": Jim Neely's Interstate BBQ. As far as we're concerned, it IS the best. Well, truly, Deb and Gavin took Susan to a BBQ place somewhere on the road to the Omaha airport and that was probably better. And there's the Bodacious BBQ place in Ventura that was also really good, but hey, when it comes to airport food it doesn't get any better than Memphis BBQ.

Look out Memphis, we'll be back!
