Continuing through Amarillo, TX...Pat and John Landergin were Kansas cattlemen who came to the Panhandle of Texas in the early 1900’s and purchased ranch land west of Amarillo. They were successful in this venture, and in 1912 they purchased four lots in Amarillo on which to build a home.
The house was completed and occupied by the summer of 1914, but by 1929 all members of the immediate Landergin family were deceased. Little more is known about the house until it was purchased in 1940 by Don and Sybil Harrington.route 66attractionsmother roadAmarillo TXHarrington Housemansions

Just on the western outskirts of Amarillo we find Cadillac RV. Just 3/4 of a mile east of Cadillac Ranch is this RV park which has taken on the ranch’s theme. Three vintage Cadillacs are angled on ramps out front but don’t try to spray paint these babies. They are in pristine condition. They’re also guarded by a giant “2nd Amendment Cowboy,” this is Texas after all.

West of Vega, we finally reach what is considered the "Midpoint" of Route 66 between Chicago, IL and Santa Monica, CA Adrian has the honor of being the Geo-mathematical Center of Route 66: the original U.S. highway 66 ran 1,139 miles east to Chicago and the same distance west to Los Angeles. This small rural town is the midpoint and halfway point of US Route 66. The Bent Door was a unique 24-hour Route 66 cafe, souvenir shop and gas station. Never officially named the “Bent Door Cafe”, it came to be called that because of the doors and windows that were purchased from an Army Air Force Base after WWII where they had served as part of the control tower. It was a bustling business during the hey-day of Route 66 and has many heart-warming stories. Even as it stands vacant, many people stop to reminisce and take pictures of the building.
