Cadillac Ranch & RV Museum

Did you guess where I did my graffiti?  I did it at Cadillac Ranch!   There are ten Cadillacs that are buried head first in the ground and people are allowed to paint on them.

The cars from the highway.






I think I should paint here.



There are cows here.  I am not sure I like this.
Yes, there were cows walking near us.  We were not thrilled about that.  Dad said it would be okay.
Dad decided to help me paint.  I wanted to do a paw print, but Dad thought my name would be better.

Dad added Scout's name.  We wanted to add "Two Greyhound Town" to it, but Dad said it was too windy to write all that.


It looks good!
Scout agrees, but thinks her name should have been first.


You can even see it far away!
We gave our paint can to a couple who came without one.  They thought that was pretty cool.

As promised, here are more photos from the RV Museum.  The link has more photos from the museum that you may find interesting.

RV Museum

We forgot to tell you a funny that happened on our way here on Wednesday.  We were stopping for gas in Colorado and we took the wrong exit.  It looked like we were headed for a toll plaza.  Mama said "Oh, no!"  Dad told her to get money out.  It turns out that we were headed into a restricted area.  BOL!  There were soldiers at the plaza.  Dad told the soldier "Well, I obviously took a wrong turn".  The soldier said "Follow me."  He then yelled "HALT TRAFFIC!"  All the traffic stopped and we did a U-turn.  BOL!  It was pretty funny.

The winds are calm this morning, but yesterday, it was crazy.  We had a binder on the dash that blew out of the motor home when we opened the door.

Scout and I think having our own dog run is really neat.  We are going to miss it.  We don't think the next place we are staying even has a public one.  :-(

 


We have our own supply of bags!

Here we are in the public run.
 

Our site.
 The folks visited the Jack Sisemore RV Museum.  This is a FREE museum that is located behind the Jack Sisemore dealership.  The folks thought the museum was a lot of fun.






 

The museum also has motorcycles.

The side item is an air conditioner.



 The most "famous" RV that they have is from RV movie with Robin Williams.  It is the bus that Jeff Daniels' drove.

Visitors are allowed to climb in and touch most of the RVs in the museum.  There are just a few that they ask that you not climb in due to their age.

Mama took a ton of photos of the inside of the RVs, but that might be boring for many of you.  UPDATE:  We just had a request to include some of the inside photos, so we will put those in our next post.

The folk ate at the Big Texan.  We will talk about that tomorrow as this post is getting really long.

 Well, we just realized that we didn't finish telling you about the rest of our trip home.  I don't know if we even remember the res...
