Destination - Texas and Route 66
Route 66 stretches through 200 miles of pancake-flat plains in the area known as the Texas Panhandle. Devoid of trees or other features the western half of the drive heading into New Mexico is also known as the "Staked Plains" This is dusty, raw country where men are men!

Amarillo - Texas and Route 66
Amarillo - the name alone conjures up pictures from the Old West in the mind’s eye. The name is derived from the Spanish word for “yellow” because of the yellow sub soil and yellow flowers found here.
