I never thought I’d say this, but our time in Texas was very pleasant. I liked Amarillo, it had a nice “rhythm” to it, and everyone we came into contact with were great. Even with our “day off”, we still didn’t get on the road until late morning. Just goes to show [...]

Armadillo: any of a family (Dasypodidae) of burrowing edentate mammals with an armorlike covering of bony plates, ranging from the S U.S. to Argentina: they are mostly nocturnal, and a few species roll up into a ball when attacked.
