We became fogged in while going through Amarillo, so opted to stop at the truck stop on the right. This is immediately off I-40W, so if you're driving there, you can't miss it.
On most of the trucks in the lot, and on the travel center, were inscribed, in LARGE type, "Jesus Christ is Lord......not a swear word". I was intrigued by the obvious witness, so later looked it up online.
Apparently it was founded by a fellow who works in San Diego and got sick of hearing all the swearing around him. Since he had the funds, he started this trucking company. It really irritated a number of his customers, to the point that he lost the business of several. This didn't bother Sam; he just took on other customers.
If you have a chance, look it up. jesuschristislordtravelcenter.com

Ah I remember Amarillo from my Air Force days. They used to tell us that if we walked away AWOL they would still see4 us on the horizon 3 days later. And I remember walking and marching though snow drifts with sand and dust blowing in my face. I'll stick with CT!
