Amarillo by Morning

Leaving our accommodations in Little Rock, the sky was purple and we encountered some light rain through Arkansas. Our destination for the first half of the day was already decided--Mustang Oklahoma. Once we got in Oklahoma, it un-humided the air and the green trees and things faded to brown and the land flattened out. There wasn't anything for miles around.

We arrived and met up with Clint and Nathan. Chatted with them at Chili's and ate dinner/lunch with them. Clint has a '66 Coronet. Left the restaurant at 5ish and had a hard time figuring out where to stop for the night. We were just cruising the i-40 and decided to stop in Amarillo texas. Dad had a little transmission problem getting into the parking lot, the car was stuck in second gear, but it eventually smoothed out and he was able to shift again. Stumbled up to our room and conked out for the night. It was a pretty uneventful day with nothing to do. It was pretty for the first hour then i got bored of it quickly.

 

Woke up in the morning late, around 9:30, because all this time changing has really gotten to me, and had breakfast at the hotel. Drove out of the parking lot at 10:30 or so, and got on the 40 again. Stay tuned for the final post...quite a doozy.

I was drawing and getting a break from the scrubby scenery

The USA Today. I'm glad i don't normally read the paper. :P

Pretty sunset in Arkansauce.
