How about another Kooky’s Road Trip?

This time, a short one, to Amarillo, TX.

Apparently, I’m giving a keynote speech at the Panhandle Press Association convention. My guess is that all the other speakers Roger Estlack invited were busy.

Cigars for this trip courtesy of my brother Christopher S Viers.

We'll take a different set of wheels this time. How about a 1983 Mazda RX-7? She may not be the prettiest thing on the road, but she runs great!

First stop! Picking up a passenger to Wichita. Mark Sanderson is tagging along for a few hours.

Cigars, Bavarian bier, and great conversation with Dieter, the owner of the Cafe Bahnhof in Wynoka, Oklahoma is on the horizon. Also a short stop in Canadian to see my old friend Laurie Ezzell Brown.

Hanging Out With the Jims

I was wandering around Mound City, MO taking pics of anything of interest. I snapped an old movie theater with my Rolleiflex 2.8 and moved on. I was weaving through the residential areas when this strange little building, maybe it was once a salon, came into view. I turned the truck down the hill to get a shot.

Pulled Over in Mooreland, OK

I got pulled over today. After a fun morning teaching Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, and Bridge at he Panhandle Press Association convention in Amarillo,Texas I was home bound. Heading over to Oklahoma City on I-40 then north on I-35 was the quickest route, but who wants that when one can take the back roads and see abandoned airports and rural America?
