Monday Musings - Amarillo

Our first day of our trip we drove to Amarillo, Texas to spend the night and to go to Palo Duro Canyon. There is a wonderful show in the canyon about Texas with songs, dancing, fireworks, that just takes your breath away!

Imagine driving in the Texas Panhandle where you can see forever mind you and then all of a sudden there’s this amazing canyon! It was so beautiful.

Palo Duro Canyon

Palo Duro Canyon, the drive down, was a little hairy for me…. shock

The Theater Stage

I have never seen a more beautiful stage….they use the whole area you see even the very top! See where that tree stands in the middle (look really hard ) ), during the show a deer wandered up there slowly just looking around. I tried to capture it on my camera but because we couldn’t use flash it didn’t turn out. I was so disappointed! (

Rider on the Ridge, it was amazing to see that rider fly across the ridge holding the Texas flag.

The evening ended with a fantastic fireworks show and the final view was this. Beautiful!

 

If you ever had a question whether things in Texas are bigger or not….

Here’s your proof…. )

The Big Texan is an Amarillo landmark, they are known for the 72 oz. steak! If you can eat the whole steak within an hour, it’s free. And no we didn’t eat there! lol

Well, I guess that will do for now…mind you that is just our first day and not even making a dent in the 830 photos I took! innocent But I’ll be kind and not bombard you all at once!

How was your weekend? Talk to me!
