Here are the images of our recent vacation to the Palo Duro Canyon State Park in West Texas, hope you enjoy!

Chimney of the Civilian Conservation Corps which is all that remains of the original 1936 base camp during park construction

our canyon tour buggy

Cadillac Ranch is an old Route 66 attraction located west of Amarillo along I-40 it was built as an art project in 1974 (i dont get it) but whether you see the symbolism the artist is trying to convey or not... it is still an interesting road trip landmark which sees thousands of visitors each year

The Big Texan Steakhouse was established in 1960 on Route 66, but relocated once route 66 was decommissioned, the building and decor is known for its bright wild colors, but is best known for its 72 ounce steak challenge wherein the patron can attempt to eat a salad, dinner roll, baked potato, shrimp cocktail and a 72 ounce steak, if successful the meal is free
