I got a phone call the other morning wanting to figure out what was going in at a location here in Amarillo. So me doing my best investigation drove out to the area in question. There has to be answers.
I know that we have to change in order to improve. It seems like everyday something is closing. Just like every day something new is coming to Amarillo. It is just the way of the world. The way of our city.
OK, we have seen some weird things happen in our city in the past week or so. We hit record temperatures recently. It's not very often we see 108. Yes, it's July but still. We were all sweating it up.
Earlier I had posted about the convenience store battle in Amarillo. In the comments of one of our social media posts, somebody mentioned that Toot 'n Totum and Pak-A-Sake were connected.
People in our area have a love hate relationship with Toot n Totum's. They either really love them or would rather push their car across town to get gas. I fall in the later category.
It's fair to say we are pretty much use to the things that make Amarillo, well ummm, Amarillo. We love some things. Other things we are not sure why Amarillo is this way. Either way when we have family and friends visit we need to warn them of a few things.
I feel like there are two kinds of people in this world. Oh and they end up in a relationship together. Tell me I am wrong. There are the ones who love to take risks and that one who lives life by the rules.
