AMARILLO, TX -- It's a great weekend to get outside to go inside for a look at the outdoors... at Outdoor World.

It's the 21st annual event...with about 50 vendors setting up Friday morning:everything from boats, cars,motor homes, and guided tours.

But it's not just outdoor activities. At the booths you'll find cooking utensils, purses, designer sunglasses, jewelry along with food to outdoor events, including big game hunting, and taxidermy...and some of these business say they rely on shows like this to stay profitable.

"We wouldn't miss it for the worlds, wouldn't miss it. We've been doing this every year, and if they need a piece or got anything specific, i"ll sure be glad to talk to em,", says Frank Williams of Trophy Taxidermy of west Texas.

The fish tank was stocked late this afternoon and tickets can be picked up at the door.

$5.00 for adults, $3.oo for kids 6-12, and kids 12 and under are free!
