Family Reunion Trip, Day 67

Left camp this morning to do some exploring. Before we left I got a few more pics of the campsite
Then we took a drive through the State Park. Here's few pics.
The hills are beautiful.
The entire park is in a canyon.
Next we drove over to Cadillac Ranch, just east of Amarillo. A must see on RT 66.
Here's a few pics.
All the trash you see is actually spray cans of paint.
Almost everyone at the place brings paint to spray on the caddies.
Just up the road is the Cadillac Ranch tourist trap.
They had nice clean facilities.
And this tall cowboy to guard the place.
Next we drove through old Amarillo on RT 66.
We then drove 60 miles north of town to Lake Meredith.
Yep, we got a stamp!
Here's a panorama of the dam.
Back at camp we took this pic of the campground from the visitor center on the canyon rim.If you zoom in you can see our camper just to the right of the building (bath house) in the center of the pic.
Last but not least got this pic of a road runner in the campground, but no Wiley Coyote.
Meet some nice folks in the campground that had a 34 ft Airstream. They gave us a tour of their camper, very nice. Hamburgers and onions rings for dinner from the outpost store near the campground, then early to bed.
