Further adventures in the greater Amarillo area

This morning Mom and I took a stroll down Route 66. We enjoyed perusing a number of antique shops on 6th Street. After some exhausting shopping we met Bryan for lunch at a Route 66 fixture, Barnaby's Beanery. Yummy.

During lunch Bryan suggested that our next excursion be to the Combine City.



It appears that someone wanted to replicate Cadillac Ranch with Farm Equipment. I think mom enjoyed seeing this particular spectacle.



Since we were practically to the canyon, Mom and I continued on our way to the Palo Duro Canyon. (Bryan left to prepare for the evening's festitivies at his home - yes, the parents met that night!)
Mom and I enjoyed a tour of the base of the canyon - even explored part of a trail. Ok, enough to make it look like we were out hiking (hey, our time in the canyon was limited.) In this picture you can see the Lighthouse above Mom's head.



Along the trail Mom even stopped to identify a cactus or two. Don't get any ideas about future placements for these prickly friends, Mom!



Thanks for a fun visit to Amarillo, Mom!(And I am sorry it took me so long to post these images!)
