Around Amarillo

As we are making our way to Christmas and New Year's in Amarillo there are businesses that are deciding to close their doors. It's been a rough year and we have seen several restaurants and businesses just decide to close up.

Hopefully this will make it easier to navigate to West Plains

One of the best things about heading out of town and leaving Amarillo behind is seeing the things that other places have. You get to experience their foods, their stores, and some of their fun activities. Then sometimes you see something and you just don't know what to think.

Amarillo takes notice when an Amarillo restaurant closes. We rally around some of them and in 2024 we got to see a few of them reopen. We were lucky enough to get both Beef O'Brady's and Malcolm's back in business. That is good news in Amarillo.

Enrollment numbers have crashed at eight Amarillo schools.

I have never felt the excitement for a business coming to Amarillo like this. The pure joy, the anticipation, the celebration of Buc-ee's coming to Amarillo. This one store is bringing a lot to our city so the excitement makes sense.

Some days I just want to take my car and just go back to my home in Amarillo and try another day. We have all been there. Not every day can be perfect when you spend some of your time driving around and delivering food to hungry Amarillo customers.

If you're going in on opening day, these should be your five targets

If you follow anything happening in Amarillo we love to tease new things. We look forward to getting a new place or even a new item. Whatever it is we love to try new things. So when there is something new we take notice.

My daughter and granddaughter recently made a trip to Amarillo. We were looking for fun things to do so the granddaughter could let off some steam. We had a long list of fun activities. One of the places we were going to check out was the Amarillo Zoo.

These changes would shake things up for sure

It's been pretty active in the skies of Amarillo
