Last night, over drinks a plan was hatched.

We would drive up to Amarillo and visit a spot next to historic Route 60 called Cadillac Ranch.

Cadillac Ranch is an interesting site to see, and even though it was rainy a muddy today. People showed up to fulfill the time honored tradition of covering them in spray paint.

You can read more about the Cadillac Ranch here.

And if you want to see some awesome pictures taken along Route 60, my friend Charlie Stout has an awesome project over at RouteSixty.com.

I shot this the other day, and decided to edit it a little bit for fun.

Still trying to edit photos which is something I rarely do.

What do you think of this?

Tonight some storms came in to town, and I decided to grab my camera and run outside of town to see the sunset.

About two miles outside of town, I decided to turn down a dirt road, looking for the perfect spot to sit and wait.

I started taking some pictures of this pump while I was waiting, and this shot I really liked. I wanted my shot for tonight to sum up West Texas, and I think this does a pretty good job.

While I was shooting this, the wind picked up on me, and I got hit by a fast gust of wind. Unfortunately, I was not on the best footing when I was shooting, so down I went.

According to the weather, during this storm we were getting wind speeds up to 60 mph. and I felt it.
