Elvis lives in Elkhart, Kansas. 13 years ago Forrest Lusk, owner of the Downtown Restruant in Elkhart sang Elvis's "Can't Help Falling in Love With you" at his own wedding. Not an Elvis fan at the time, people came up to him after the wedding saying he sounded like the real Elvis. He worked on some moves and practiced and was asked to perform before local groups and eventually made it to the Kansas State Fair...twice. The promoter said he outdrew country singer Ricky Van Shelton. When the spirit moves Lusk he dons his Elvis garb and takes a full length mirror out in the flat brush covered countryside and practices under some spectacular Kansas sunsets.
