LOL! I try to avoid Summer Avenue unless I'm going to Charlie's Meat Market
and the Market Basket (great produce!) Are they still showing the Summer
Avenue hookers on the news? I always found that amusing. They'd show the
mug shots and tell what their prices were and at what intersection they
could be found! News serving the Memphis community... uh huh!

Hard to believe the first Holiday Inn was located down that way. Kemmons
Wilson would spin in his grave at the hourly rates (if the place is even
still there).
