Route 66 - Boofle Visits Cadillac Ranch



There they are, right out there in an open field.
Outside Amarillo, Texas is the world famous  Cadillac Ranch. Created in 1974 by members of an art group who called themselves The Ant Farm, Stanley Marsh 3 contracted with them to place the public art work on his property. The piece consists of what were, at the time of installation, 10 older, running used Cadillac automobiles representing a number of evolutions of the car line from 1949 to 1963. The cars are buried nose down at an angle corresponding to that of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. 


Getting closer.

You are encouraged to leave your own message. 
Bring paint!

Every now and then, the cars are painted over in a solid
color and the graffiti art begins anew!

God bless us all.
