Day 3 Amarillo texas


we have been listening to this story about teddy roosevelt and he just took this trip to the western territories and he talks about how he eats really well out there and eats a lot of steak so he gains a lot of weight. when he comes back his wife has built him a tennis court to make him loose the weight, after hearing this, and realizing that the likelihood of us playing tennis anytime soon was slim, we decided to forego the 72 oz Big Tex steak (free if you can eat it within an hour) we then opted to eat our 4th BBQ meal in 3 days! YUMM!

it was a little over a week ago when kelsey and mike called elo told her they were in Big Tex. and and out to pass the cadillac ranch, elo cant believe that she didn't know what those were then but can now say that she can now write those on her life list of ridiculous roadside attractions. even if we only drive past it on the free way and had me take pictures of it whilst driving by, a sort of drive-by tourism if you will. (elo wants to note that she did slow down to 60 MPH)















From there we jumped off into the great beyond full of cow ranches and corn farms.
