Home Leave Road Trip - Cadillac Ranch Amarillo TX

 

I prefer Carhenge in Nebraska, but this was another interesting car display that we hit on the road trip as we passed through Amarillo TX. If you ever find yourself in that town, then it's worth checking out and adding some spray paint if you want.

They sell spray paint and some other stuff or just pick up a nearly empty can from the ground and add a little something to this ever changing display. Why not? Everybody else is doing it.

Home Leave Road Trip - Colorado Springs CO

 

Our home leave road trip to South Dakota was a straight trip north from Texas along new roads to me. I decided we should go back through Colorado Springs and see some previous favorites for a day. Pike's Peak and Garden of the Gods are good for repeat visits. As my wife and I like to say, we can get more pics at a "different angle and different light."

Home Leave Road Trip - Mt Rushmore & Crazy Horse South Dakota

 

The initial idea and destination of our road trip was Mount Rushmore. However, the journey and everything else we saw and did along the way there and back is the real reason some goals are better achieved as a driving trip.

Home Leave Road Trip - Kansas & Nebraska

 

Our road trip to Mt Rushmore from Texas required driving for a day through some seemingly uninteresting areas of Kansas and Nebraska. We still managed to find a few things to see along the way with a little rest stop.
