Hot Springs Village AK to Amarillo TX

580 miles today - about 10 hours through Arkansas, Oklahoma, and the Texas panhandle. Saw some tornado damage in OK: mangled billboards, fields strewn with debris. Not much else to see - a lot of OK looked like it was ready to dry up & blow away. This actually started to happen in Texas, when the sky filled with dust from strong winds. The sky was a weird brown color when we drove into Amarillo.

Ate dinner at Cowboy Gelato downtown - great funky little place with good food, live music, and (duh) gelato. My mouth was burning for 10 minutes after my scoop of strawberry habanero. Some rain, clearing skies, and amazing double rainbow on the way home. Off to Albuquerque tomorrow.
