Amarillo

We passed this water tower. It is called the "Leaning Tower of Texas".
It was made this way on purpose to lure tourist into a little town called Groom.
It is apart of the old Route 66.
Another sight to see on the road to Amarillo is this cross.
It is supposed to be the largest cross on the Northern Hemisphere.
It was built back in 1995 by a gentleman who was disgusted by all the billboards that advertised for a pornography store XXX. The cross stands about 190 feet in height.

We are glad to be at the motel and the boys are free to roam around the room and out of the van. William is trying to fall asleep in the portacrib and Thomas is walking around wondering what to do. He is tired but being in a strange place has him a bit out of sorts.
Tomorrow we are headed to Flagstaff Arizona. We have about 9-10 drive tomorrow.
