I live within an hour of Amarillo, it has one of the lowest unemployment rates in the nation. My favorite two places to go in Amarillo are Hooters and Gander Mountain. Lots of good places to eat including the Big Texan. They are famous for the 5 pound steak. If you can eat it within 1 hour you get it free! Red River NM is about 5 hours away for a great vacation spot. The Texas panhandle takes time to get used to. Some days the wind will blow 50 mph all day. Right on the edge of Tornado Alley. They usually form in this area and head East in OKlahoma.
