"Is this the way to Amarillo?"... Indeed it was unfortunately we followed the guide book to a singularly unusual place where our guide book was correct in saying that you may well be serenaded by rednecks and indeed we were. The guide book had it wrong though- this was not a gift shop or curiosity shop but a performance space for a couple who were particularly sexist and bigoted in their approach to a group of four women traveling together. However we didn't need to hang around there too long and we were given a can of drink each by them.
Our experience in the Elk City Route 66 museum was much more pleasant and informative.It was good to view the movie that gave a history of the "mother road" and an even greater insight in to the difficulties that were overcome by those who traveled the road.
