Between Vega, Tx and Amarillo, Tx is a crazy art display called Cadillac Ranch. This art work, Cadillacs buried nose down in the ground, is in the middle of a field and was installed by an eccentric millionaire in 1974 as a public art display. People are encouraged to add their own art work to the Cadillacs. Cans of spray paint are around everywhere from people who have stopped by to add their own artistic talents. After stopping to view this unique display, we headed on to Amarillo, Tx. We stopped and asked a local in Amarillo for a restaurant recommendation and he directed us to Wheels Chicken and Waffles restaurant. Wow was that a great recommendation. The food was so great and consisted of delicious fresh fried okra and yummy fried chicken served by super friendly people with great Southern accents. I was in heaven!! After checking out The Big Texan, a local Texas icon, we got back on the road to enjoy more sights between Amarillo, Tx and Elk City, OK.
