On my way into Amarillo from Tucumcari last week I saw a couple of interesting things.

The first looked like a short woodhenge, from a distance. But, as I came up to it, I saw that it was a very strange cattle loading pen. Normally, the loading pens are made of panel fencing; this was made out of poles driven into the ground, quite close to each other.

The second was a Stuckey’s billboard advertising “Mandellas and Dream Catchers for sale” up ahead. I wonder if Nelson gets any royalties from this? (A dream catcher is an Indian stick and string mandala, for catching dreams)
