We have had the groundbreaking of  Buc-ee's here in Amarillo. It is going to happen before you know it. We have had billboards letting us know where you can find Buc-ee's until the one here opens. We love our Buc-ee's that is a given.

We are a little over a year away from the official opening in February of 2025. As we drive down I40 on the way to the airport we can watch the progress. We can just picture the day we can walk through those doors at Airport Boulevard.

What will be the first thing you purchase? Is it going to be those Beaver Nuggets? That is all I hear people talking about. Still, I have not tried those. So that may be the first thing for me. Unless I gravitate towards a brisket sandwich or a t-shirt to show that I finally have become a part of the Buc-ee's family.

We can lovingly refer to these days as B.B, before Buc-ee's. We know that those after Buc-ee's days are going to be great for Amarillo. We will have more jobs in the area. We will have a place for the fanatics to go.

Oh, how many people will be making a stop in Amarillo just to get to Buc-ee's? We already know that will be happening. Things are moving ahead with the fact that they have updated the billboard near Buc-ee's on Airport Boulevard.

Nearby the billboard let us know we could find a Buc-ee's a thousand and thirty-nine miles from Amarillo. Yes, there are closer ones in the Dallas area
