I would love to drive on route 66 some day.
But then again, most of your pictures tells me that America must be a great place to visit.
Have a wonderfull day :-))

I guess 2900 followers can't be wrong, and judging by the photos I have seen so far, they are not. Great great images!

Ohhhh, I love it...
We traveled the old Route 66 many times over the years. The first time I went as a new bride was in March of 1958. It was so exciting, curio shops lined the road as far as you could see. Bright Indian blankets and pottery and baskets everywhere. Colorful and to die for Chenille Bedspreads hanging from the trees and ropes strung beneath them. And we barely had gas money to get there. Ah, the good old days...
Hubby says we went across there so many times we could stop and borrow flour anywhere, everyone knew us...funny!!!
Thanks for the memories.

Route 66 in Oklahoma looks nothing like this! In that part of the country, "Old 66" happens to be a two-lane highway that looks no different than other paved roads used by locals. Going to OK City, I was n it for a good 20 miles before it dawned I was on a piece of history!

What a wonderful old relic to add to the ongoing lure and lore of Rt. 66! It just about begs to tell its story! For now, tho, I guess I'll just have to make it up!

I love this car. Used to ride Route 66 with my dad when I was a kid. Great memories.

Hey I think I may have taken this same shot! Maybe somewhere around the petrified forest/painted mountains? Ok, I'm a little late to your blog... I won't comment on all of them, but I gotta say... you've got some great shots.... and I know how exhausting being on the road can be sometimes... but wow... all the stuff you are seeing is probably more than most will ever see in a lifetime!

What a cool old car- I really like the rust. It would be sharp in black and white too. But this really nice!
