Thanx guys, I wasnt really considering moving there, just curious. I took a contract job to fill in for a month in Amarillo over the summer and it was miserable. I was just out of college and so the car that I had didnt have air conditioning. It was like a heat wave going on. It was over 110degrees much of the time I was there and then massive lightning storms in the evening, that was actually really cool. THe gym I was going to was airconditioned to 80degrees which was at least 30degrees cooler than the outside but still, its hard to run a treadmill at that temp. just forget about out on the street. I could hardly go outside so I never really checked out the place, Im used to moderate temps in the northwest not too cold, not too hot. It was quite a shock. The housing looked incredibly cheap though.
