Review of Amarillo, Texas

I lived in a town about the size of Amarillo when I was a teenager. Couldn't wait to get out of there because there was nothing to do. Sometimes you just have to look a little harder. I travel to Palo Duro Canyon, close to Amarillo one or two times a week to mountain bike. I've lived in the area for 20 years and was introduced to the canyon by my son. It's a beautiful place with the plants changing in color almost weekly during the spring. My grand daughter and I discovered 11 different creatures in about an hour and a half including the first dung beetle we'd ever seen other than in a book. Of course the outdoors is not everyone's cup of tea, but if you like that kind of thing it's the best in the area.
