Texas 66.

WElcome to Texas.

From the Texas panhandle on to California, you’re now heading due west. Great architecture, two famous ‘henges (Cadillac Ranch AND the VW Bug Ranch), ugly pies and a great big sky awaits you.

Graphic design with the Texas state shape, a star symbol, and the words 'Texas' and 'The Lone Star State' in a distressed style.
Painted car sculptures arranged in a line on a barren landscape under a partly cloudy sky, with a person standing in the distance.
