Route 66 Pilgrims


Recommended Posts

I sent a copy of that article to my cousin who is NOW planning on taking a trip with a group of friends along the road in the near future. Great article.

 

I just might get Mr. Interstate off onto a two-laner.

A very nice article with subheading: They've all gone to look for America on the fabled road.

 

See Route 66 Pilgrims

 

There's also a photo gallery at Along Rt 66 (It does require the Flash player)

 

 

I have learned, sadly, that what you seek has probably been lost - especially if it's 40 or 50 years back down that winding two-lane highway.

But, that said, the excitement and hope that drives us to look back is what's important.

I've driven over roads I traveled, first with my parents, later by myself traveling from one duty station (Navy) to another, years later and found little that I remember. But it was the anticipation that made the trips worthwhile. And I am richer for the original traveling, and for being able to go back and look again.
