Amarillo By Evening

The Lone Star State

Day 12 – 09/26/2018

We left Colorado bright and early today after a long night of being awake while Riley was coughing. We drove straight through to Texas with just a few stops to allow the dogs to do their business. Along the way we saw quite a few antelope but they were very skittish when we tried to stop to take pictures. One in this group must have been really comfortable because it just laid there and looked at us when all the rest took off.

As we got near Amarillo, we stopped by the Cadillac Ranch. It was pretty cool but we were saddened by all the trash all around it.

And of course the obligatory selfie taken by someone who was walking by.

Then we went and checked in to the hotel, Comfort Inn & Suites, in Amarillo. It is very nice. After getting our stuff into the room we went to Palo Duro Canyon. It was beautiful. We drove down to the bottom and saw a flock of wild turkeys.

and then back up to the top.
