Rolled through Arkansas and Oklahoma, then stopped at The Big Texan in Amarillo, TX. Home of the 72 oz. FREE steak! (if you can eat it with sides in under an hour). Unfortunately no one tried this daring feat, but we were definitely tempted. If you can't finish however, you have to pay $72 for the meal..
Then we rolled into Alburquerque, NM, caught up with a college friend and will be crashing at his place for another day. We are still hoping to see a set of these famous vintage Burma-Shave signs along the way on the historic route 66 (rumour has it a couple are still up). The signs are little poems, set so that you read each one every 3 seconds or so. This one read: If daisies are your/favorite flower/keep pushin' up those/miles-per-hour/Burma-Shave.
