Day 4 Amarillo TX pop. 200,000

Have driven 908 miles and each mile has brought new, interesting and bizarre experiences!  I went to Windsor Hills for church and then we hit the road.  Before leaving OK, we toured an excellent RT 66 museum in Clinton, and were the sole diners at an Italian restaurant.   We have done fairly well at finding all the sections of Route 66 including the one lane section that needs to be mowed and that the tree roots are coming up through the asphalt. Karen even took a piece home for a souvenir!  We will see how well that travels!  (no, Karen, it is not stealing to take the clump, it's not a state park!)  A trip to Erick OK will long be a source of "wet your pants" laughing for the trio!  I really wish we had computer access because there are no words to describe our experience.  The shop was called "the Sandhills Curiosity Shop" owned by Harly and Anna Belle.  Harly was outside working on cleaning up a sign to add to the collection. He told Anna Belle to "go in and turn on the lights, nothing is for sale but take lots of pictures and then hit the road".   She was very friendly, showed us many things and gave us a tour of "the RedNeck Castle".  We're thinking that they might have had a "BAD TRIP" back in the 60s.  We stayed way longer than we cared to and after scraping the dog dung off our shoes we headed as fast as we could for the TX border!  Will post pictures as soon as possible!  We found a vintage western hotel in Amarillo next door to a steak house.  Neither Deb, Karen or I took the challenge to eat a 72 oz steak for free and if you can't get it down in 1 hour you pay $72.  We have met a couple from Sweden and they are also staying at the same hotel and ate dinner just before us.  Tomorrow it is on to New Mexico....
