Amarillo,TX to Adrian,TX

Adrian Texas is the official midpoint of the Route 66 Highway – we are even staying at the Midpoint Campground. That said, it was a very challenging day getting here.

It was overcast and quite windy and just miles of nothingness. We would see a freeway overpass or a grain elevator in the distance and it would be another 4 to 6 miles before you got there. We had planned to do ” drive by shopping” for dinner tonight at a town about 14 miles before Adrian!  When we arrived we found that the only grocery store in town was closed on Sunday!!! There was a convenience store/ gas station ear the freeway so we got creative!!  Spaghetti with smoked sausage and a salad!!  We did manage to stop at the Cadillac Ranch.

It was interesting but I don’t need to see it again. The next four days are going to be very grueling as we make our way to Santa Fe.  In any case, we are halfway there.
