Cadillac Ranch outside Amarillo, TX

This is one road side attraction that is an interesting aspect of Texas. I did go out of my way to see this, but it is not for everyone. It's a row of ten Caddy's with the front end buried in the ground. The Cadillac's are pointed facing west "at the same angle as the Cheops," in Egypt. This is one of the offbeat attractions in America that is interactive and allows one to spray paint at allow them to leave their mark on this attraction. According to RoadsideAmerica.com, " The Cadillac Ranch, located along the tatters of historic Route 66, was built in 1974, brainchild of Stanley Marsh 3, the helium millionaire who owns the dusty wheat field where it stands. Marsh and The Ant Farm, a San Francisco art collective, assembled used Cadillacs representing the "Golden Age" of American Automobiles (1949 through 1963)." To be here and experience this attraction, we were luckily enough to get here in time to watch the golden hour before sunset. To witness these Cadillac's buried nose down is a treat. We were all surprised to not find any profanities sprayed into the cars, which in a said comment against our country we were surprised. We did expect to find that someone had sprayed something offensive into the cars, yet there was none. These ten cars are buried into the middle of a field with nothing around them, it is a sight to see. If you are ever passing through Amarillo, TX I would recommend taking the frontage road between exit 60 and 62 on Interstate 40 rolling East. It's worth the stop, if anything to stretch your legs.
