Day 12 - Cadillacs and a Volcano
Started the day by calling in at Cadillac Ranch alongside the I40, just outside Amarillo - weird! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadillac_Ranch
We then left the high plains of Texas via the US385 and US87 - stopping off for our customary Subway break at Dalhart.
As we carried on through New Mexico the Plains became higher and the scenery more dramatic, until we reached Capulin Volcano. http://www.nps.gov/cavo/
The photo shows the view of the volcano as we approached, with the road which goes all the way up to the rim. The next two photos are of the view down into the crater and one of Jenny at the bottom where the old vent was.
We then carried on into Colorado, eventually stopping overnight on the I25.
