Antiques & Tattoos – Day Four – Route 66

No travel- slept in then off to the Historic Route 66 District of Amarillo. It was not what we were expecting. The businesses were “Antique” stores, which translated to “vendor mall” and tattoo parlors. You could still find some Retro,Cool Junk & Weird Stuff – all on sale!

Retro cool junk and weird stuff!! Of course, it’s on sale.

There was no shortage of food & beverages!

If you are an artist-Amarillo is the place to paint a building!

“Eat an entire 72 ounce steak and it’s free at The Big Texan!” We couldn’t even come close… the onion rings were great and the steak delicious! You can tell because the only things left on the plate are bread and broccoli. Vernon couldn’t get enough of the jalapeños 😉!

Where did the steak go?

Back to the campground for a quiet night, except for Irene joining the band. A movie, a little snack, and a cocktail to round out the evening.

Metal band with a mariachi vibe!
No judgement 🙂
We have the DVD if you want to borrow it when we get home!
Paloma for the win!

    We follow a guy on YouTube, the page is called Randomland. He loves Route 66 (originally where we decided to do the Cadillac Ranch) and he’s doing it again with his son. They just did the 72oz steak challenge. They opted to do it at their own table; due to dietary restrictions for the Dad; but it tripled the price of the meal. It ended up being like $220 or something. His son made it about half way through the meal and took the rest to-go. He ate on it the next day😄 the food definitely looks good!
