Christmas Trip 2014

This year we decided to spend Christmas in Santa Fe and while we will not be enjoying a white Christmas with our Canadian friends we are hoping that it will be a fun time in this part of the country.  On our journey to Santa Fe we traveled to the city of Sweetwater on the first night.  Here we dinned at Buck's Lounge.  This is view of inside the restaurant and the young waitress who served us was a the dead ringer for Taylor Swift.

By the time we arrived this was the only place open where one could get a good feed.

On leaving Sweetwater we had to go through Roscoe on our way to Lubbock.  Hundreds of windmill farms are to be seen over many acres as you drive north from Sweetwater.

Lubbock is the home of the legendary Buddy Holly.

There are statues of Buddy everywhere you look.

There is Hall of Fame behind Buddy's statue which features many notables such as Ray Orbison and many others.

The memorabilia is housed in this building.

From Lubbock we traveled through Amarillo which has some interesting buildings.

As it was Sunday the streets were deserted.

More to follow as we get to Santa Fe for Christmas.

Cheers Beverley and Ross
