The view from our 1st floor room in the Best Western Motel. |
Memory Lane in Lexington - an original section of Route 66 pavement that has been set aside as a walking trail with period billboards. |
Took a break from the road at Funk's Grove & bought some maple sirup! Boofle & Lil Dude Troll relaxing. |
The wonderful ladies working in the Funk's Grove store. |
"Tall Paul," one of the famous giant "muffler men" that were all over the country at one time. This one, holding a hot dog, is in Atlanta, Illinois. |
Walking around Atlanta and found this guy in front of a tire shop. Anyone know who he is? |
Not right on Route 66, but a good side- trip is a visit to Abe Lincoln's tomb. |
They say if you rub the nose, you'll have good luck. Lot's of people have rubbed his nose. |
The Cozy Drive In, Springfield, Illinois, home to the original corn dog. A Route 66 institution since 1949. |
Old gas station at Henry's Rabbit Ranch in Staunton, Illinois |
Henry's Rabbit Ranch is home to rabbits, old neon signs, trucks, and... |
...half-buried cars! |
A good way to end the day is a side trip to Collinsville to see the world's largest catsup bottle! |
