Amarillo has a nice campground on the west side of town, cant remember the name. I guess the Cadillac Ranch is worth the 5 minutes it takes to stop and snap a picture, it is free after all. Amarillo has a museum dedicated to the helium industry. There is also the quarter horse museum and a Native American museum. It is hot and dusty there, but may be worth a day.

We had a great time at the Big Texan and the steaks were very good. Yes its a tourist trap but I was a tourist. Fun place and good food
