From there we went to the Oklahoma Route 66 museum in Clinton, which had some really interesting cars and gas station equipment from the 50’s.




After the museum we made a stop in Shamrock, Texas to see a piece of the actual Blarney stone. After Sean kissed the stone and I almost burned my hand off by touching it, it was back on the road again.
After that we took a stop at the famous Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo. It was really cool to see all the different years of Cadillac, but was also a bit depressing to see all those nice cars ruined the way that they were.

After our brief stay there we began to close in on the Texas/New Mexico state border. The only problem (which we didn’t realize until we arrived at the border) was that our gas guage was close to empty, and there were likely no gas stations for miles. What a great way to enter a new state (we thought). Then we met a man named Steve Largent who along with his wife was the only person who lived the ghost town of Glenrio (the town that was right on the border). He was extremely hospitable and offered to give us the rest of the gas that he had (about a gallon) so that we could make it to the next town. Maybe Sean kissing the Blarney Stone wasn't the worst idea. The best part too was that when we went to pay him he basically said to pay it forward.
After thanking him several times we hit the road again. This time on to Tucumcari New Mexico which was where the Blue Swallow motel was located, and this was where we stayed for the night.

But before we hit the hay, we stopped to eat dinner at “The Lizard Lounge” where we shared some tamales.
