Guest dona Posted February 7, 2003 Report Share Posted February 7, 2003 Well, look like another "lurker" decided to post just after you. I think the video is something I will pass on this time. I wonder if maybe the "stripper" mentioned meant someone who travels the well known "strips". If that is the case, then I guess the message is on topic. ;-) dona ----- Original Message ----- From: David Smith To: AMERICAN_ROAD@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, June 02, 2003 6:48 PM Subject: Re: [AMERICAN_ROAD] Sorry folks!

Guest Alex Burr Posted February 7, 2003 Report Share Posted February 7, 2003 Don't feel bad about 51 between Cairo and Carbondale, Rob - I've been over that senction at least 4 times in the last 3 or 4 years and I STILL haven't hit that particular section. I think the problem lies in that the feeders into I-57 around Dongola in the north and Mound City in the south are designed in such a way as to feed you off 51 onto the Interstate, even if you are watching for the road. And once on I-57, you're sort of stuck for a while, until you come to the U S 51 off ramp that puts you back onto 51. I'm headed for Memphis in December - I WILL FIND THAT EVER ELUSIVE SECTION OF 51 THIS TRIP - I know it exists and will take photos to prove it!!! LOL Happy Traveling.

Guest Mike Ward Posted February 7, 2003 Report Share Posted February 7, 2003 Kip, It's great to hear people talk about a stretch of road that I spent a lot of time on while growing up. I spent my "formative years" in Marion, Illinois, about 16 miles east of Carbondale. If I had a dollar for every time I've been To Giant City (just east of the bustling metropolis of Makanda) I'm sure I'd have enough to buy both of us a few beers in the tavern of your choice. Like you said, Giant City is a great place for rock climbing and all kinds of outdoor activities.

Guest Alex Burr Posted February 7, 2003 Report Share Posted February 7, 2003 Kip, You can STILL come across the Mississippi on that bridge - routes U S 60/U S 62. However, if you have a weak heart it's not recommended - and neither is the U S 51 bridge over the Ohio. I went west into Missouri recently across tthe 60/62 bridge and damn near had heart failure when I met a tractor trailer rig coming east bound - on the levee - that is damn narrow thru there. Across the levees on 60/62 and the 51 bridge - here's a web site that will curl your hair: http://www.thom.org/gallery/unnat/ILCRtwobridges I'm not sure if these bridges have any names - all I can find are Cairo Mississippi River Bridge for U S 60/62 bridge and Cairo Ohio River Bridge for U S 51/60 bridge.

Guest Rudyard Welborn Posted February 8, 2003 Report Share Posted February 8, 2003 You used to be able to catch U.S. 51 right over the old Mississippi River bridge from Missouri (U.S. 60 crosses from Missouri then immediately turns right to cross the Ohio)..it'll take you through Cairo, Future City (where Henry Townshend, say he, has never been), all the hot spots...then on to Carbondale! There is a park there called Giant City which is really cool in a natural setting climb rocks sort of way...Tsingtao, Kip ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Burr" <hester_nec@yahoo.com> To: <AMERICAN_ROAD@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 02, 2003 6:44 AM Subject: Re: [AMERICAN_ROAD] Re: Favorite drives > Don't feel bad about 51 between Cairo and > Carbondale, Rob - I've been over that senction at > least 4 times in the last 3 or 4 years and I STILL > haven't hit that particular section. > > I think the problem lies in that the feeders into > I-57 around Dongola in the north and Mound City in the > south are designed in such a way as to feed you off 51 > onto the Interstate, even if you are watching for the > road.

Guest Rudyard Welborn Posted February 8, 2003 Report Share Posted February 8, 2003 Tims site is probably the best "guide"...I dont think that there are any "guides" published for 61 right now (except McKeen's book)--if anyone knows of one, I would love to see it!

Guest Rudyard Welborn Posted February 8, 2003 Report Share Posted February 8, 2003 Most of 61 is still driveable, is still certified, and goes through some really neat places...Missouri may provide its biggest detours; the road used to follow what is now US 67 out of St. Louis down past Fredricktown then cut over to Jackson to what is now 61...now it follows what was until the mid 50's or so SR 25...south of Sikeston it hooks up with the Interstate, and in Arkansas south of the intersection of hy 63 it hooks up with the interstate...the old alignments are there, however and relatively easy to find...more later...Tsintgao Kip ----- Original Message ----- From: "airfrogusmc" <abphoto7@comcast.net> To: <AMERICAN_ROAD@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 10:55 PM Subject: [AMERICAN_ROAD] Re: For Allen/US 61 > Thanks guys, > > That will be a definate read.

Guest Ken Posted February 9, 2003 Report Share Posted February 9, 2003 Hi Kip, Yep, the auction ended at $10.50 including the shipping. Sorry you missed it. I wish that I had found it earlier in the week. Not sure if that was a real good buying price (it seemed so), but Mike sure knows his stuff and is a great resource to ask in such cases! He recently tipped me off on two great Lincoln Highway postcards that were rare, unused, in mint shape AND at a very fair price I might add! Hi Mike! Thanks Bro, for the tip on that link for a source of old books! I bookmarked the site and will be sure to refer to it next time. Rock On!

Guest Denny Gibson Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Cheers to all of you who got this going one year back. I think those number quite respectable. Particularly so when the associated magazine did not really exist for the first half of that year. I imagime awareness of both egroup & magazine will increase as the second year rolls on.
