June 4, 2009 Fortsat fra sidste side ~ Continued from last page Dansk tekst til venstre English text on the right Dagens baghave: Backyard of the Day: Cadillac Ranch, Amarillo, Potter County, Texas The Cadillac Ranch is located off Interstate 40 between Amarillo and Bushland in Potter County, Texas   Vi hoppede på gamle Hovedvej 66 igen i Amarillo og standsede udenfor byen ved Cadillac Ranch, som i øvrigt er blevet flyttet lidt ned ad vejen, siden vi var her sidst, fordi byen var ved at opsluge stedet. We rejoined old Highway 66 again in Amarillo and stopped outside of town at Cadillac Ranch, which, by the way, has been moved a bit since we were last here, because it was being swallowed up by the city.

Cadillac Ranch er ti Cadillac'er, som blev begravet med næsen ned i jorden på rad og række i 1974 af tre medlemmer af kunstnergruppen "Ant Farm". Kunstværket blev bygget på initiativ af millionær Stanley Marsh 3, som ejer marken, bilerne står på. Cadillac Ranch consists of ten Cadillacs buried nose down in a straight line in 1974 by three members of the artist group "Ant Farm". The art work was created on the initiative of millionaire Stanley Marsh 3, who owns the field where it stands.

Bilerne var oprindelig ikke spraymalede, det har publikum sørget for. Bilerne blev malet sorte i 2003, da en af "Ant Farms" oprindelige kunstnere døde, men de var ikke farveløse længe. The cars originally were not spray painted, this has been done by visitors. The cars were painted black in 2003, when one of the "Ant Farm" artists died, but they didn't remain colorless for long.
