The eastern side of New Mexico flattens out quite quickly after Albuquerque with the only hills in the distance. We crossed into Texas Panhandle and immediately got into ranching and farming country. The land is flat, much like the Prairies and there are grain silos and large cattle farms. Passed by a large stock yard where it was obvious cattle were waiting for shipping. However, we could smell the yard a ways before we actually passed. Stopped overnight in Amarillo.
