If so, did you have a decent storm today?

I took a picture of the storm cloud from above it.

I drove there once to see a friend a few years back. 287 on the other side of Wichita Falls is a wasteland.

Amarillo is bigger than I thought it would be though...especially for a city out in the middle of nowhere. My buddy told me that if the wind blows the right direction it will smell like cow shit all over the city because of some farm or something.

You can kinda see that farm over there in the corner I think.

Feed lots, not farms - there are huge feed lots west of AMA.

Up there they call it 'the smell of money.' No, I'm not shitting you, unlike the cattle.

The town(s) are called Bovina and Hereford..and yes it smells like fucking shit. At night the air gets dense on the road because of the cattle methane/heat mixture and makes it foggy and gassy all in one.

Obviously it was so much more clear in person. The back side of that was pretty wild as well. There was a lot of shit going on down inside that thing, you could see the boiling.

Tulia, however, is a different story. Almost all of Swisher county smells of pig shit.
