RE: A little day trip to a local landmark.
There's good people in Amarillo. I was fleeing TX in a '76 Nova I bought for $200, trying to find the Pacific, when the transmission fell off at 1am.
I saw some lights a few miles down the road, so the gal I was traveling with and I headed towards them. About 2am we knocked on the door, and almost immediately a gal with a snake on her neck opened the door and told us to come in.
She made us dinner, while her husband went to my car and fixed it. They tried to give us money, just because, but I wouldn't take it.
Good people, but weird. That's pretty much the kinda folk I met in TX.
Yes, there are some characters, for sure.
It's not as weird as Austin, but those folks pride themselves on weird.
Austin was what I was escaping from. 6th St. kicked my ass. With pointy toed boots.
