Though I'm too young to have seen the T.V.show, the legendary Route 66 is far from dead. My friends and I hopefully will have enough money to trek from Chicago to L.A. in the summer of '96 or '97. Wish us luck.

Does anyone know if the Devils Elbow Resort in MO is still there. It was a Conoco filling station and restaurant also. It was made of Rock and was operated by a relative of mine. I was told that Pretty Boy Floyd once came in and played the slot machines there.

Kentucky is also one of the leaders in the nation in placing technology into the hands of all students. The goal is to have one computer for every 6 students, and one computer for every teacher's classroom. We have trained support people located in 8 regions throughout the state who help the districts plan and implement the Kentucky Education Technology System (KETS) SPECIAL INVITATION!

In 1964, at the age of 19, I drove from New Jersey to Chicago where I got on Route 66. We drove all the way to L.A. in a 1940 Studebaker. That car made it up to San Francisco on Rt 1. and as far back east as Salt Lake City where I ran out of money for gas. I revisited Rt. 66 last April when I covered the bombing in Oklahoma City. My amateur '60's rock band, The Love Handles, does a very tight version of "Route 66".

I traveled from NY to CA in 1971. Got on 66 and took it all the way. The Interstates were under construction in spots but not usable in most areas. The scenery in Mo. is missed by me now.

When travelling R66 E to W out of Oatman, AZ, just after leaving the once thriving mining community of Goldroad, (take out the camera), you will pass a "well-used" trailer camp/gas station of the 20's. This was a 30's - 40's overnight stop for those that couldn't get up the hill to Oatman, or were too late to get a room at the Oatman Hotel. This was ED's CAMP. As late as 1980, there was a b/w photo tacked above the back wall of the 6 stool bar, clearly showing Clark Gable with his arm around Carole Lombard. Ed swore that they spent the night at his camp, the first night out of Los Angeles on their drive to Chicago. ED's CAMP is still owned by members of Ed's family, but is no longer open to the public. The photo may still be there!

I've been a fan of Route 66 since the song, TV show, and trips I made across the US in 1970 and '73, trying to trace parts of the Mother Road. It represents a great era in this country. I especially enjoy some of the interesting architecture that was found along this road. Now that more sections of the original highway are known, my goal is to make the trip again, only slower, and enjoy more of what remnants are left. I was wearing a Route 66 T-shirt recently when a street musician said "don't you know Route 66 doesn't exist anymore?" I just responded "yes it does." This website proves it. So, thanks for the memories. This is a great resource for those of us who remember Route 66 and what it represents.

When I left the east coast for my new job in CA, I dediced to drive. My friend and travelling companion convinced me to drive as much of Route 66 as we could. From the gravel stretches where the asphalt is gone, to the hostess at the Bluebird Motel, the Two Bay Cafe our favorite stop, Oatman, AZ, was the best time I've ever had! Now, whenever I go to Santa Monica, I always stop off at the end of Santa Monica Blvd, look at the Pacific and remember my trip 4/1-4/4/96. It was fast, but it was more than worth it!

I grew up a few miles away from 66 so most major trips involved traveling 66 to wherever, like the grandparents' house in Missouri, family vacations to California, and so on. Trips to St. Louis were always across the Chain of Rocks bridge before 270 and many even after until it closed.
In the '70s and early '80s, Corvette owners HAD to pilgrimage to Bloomington Gold Corvette Show in Bloomington IL at the fairgrounds right on Route 66. Those days you would see Corvettes for miles headed up Route 66 to THE Corvette event of the year. The relationship between the Corvettes and Route 66 was not lost on the tens of thousands of Corvettes going each year.
I've made several trips along it, even to driving to work on it one year. No big deal you say, except my drive to work was 250 miles one way. I saw a lot of the old road during that time.
I now see here in the guest book that many want to ride motorcycles along Route 66. Done that, been there, and ate the bugs. My last motorcycle trip of the length of 66 was in '91, when I loaded up the bike and headed to California to spend two months on the road. It was a great time and I met a lot of nice people and as for those who want to, my advice is:
GO!!!!
However, I sent Swa an article on riding Route 66 by motorcycle. He is putting it on here as soon as he gets the time and I think unless you are experienced long distance riders, you should read it before going. I don't want to talk you out of riding Route 66, but I want you to enjoy it and not have a miserable time.
Now if you are signing up with some motorcycle tour group, then it will be pretty sanitized and safe, where you have no worries, but to me, Route 66 is an adventure that is best experienced alone or with a few friends, not some tour bus full of 100 other people. Can you imagine 100 people stopping along the road to check out an old gas station sign or watch an eagle swoop and grab a rabbit or snake? 50 people will be standing room only in Roy's at Amboy. I didn't see Wyatt with 75 other riders staring across the desert in "Easy Rider". Todd and Buzz didn't have 30 other Corvettes in the show. It is a solitary thing.
If you plan to ride before Swa gets the article posted here, you can email me and I'll send you a copy. It will point you in the direction of things you will need to know.

Used to Cruise Rt66 on Harley while living in Choctaw OK.There's a cool place near Luther OK where the old hwy turns off to a dead end (bridge out). You can sit in the middle of the road, drink a cold one, and reflect on who might have traveled this historic highway.

When I moved from the midwest to California in the early '60's, it was Route 66 from St Louis to Pasadena. In those days, long stretches of the paving had a distinct reddish color as opposed to the mundane grey/black of most highways. The road has been magic to me since my first reading of Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath.

Wonderful site! Keep growing it because I keep coming back!! I grew up traveling Route 66 with my parents, as we went from Ponca City, Oklahoma to Joplin, Missouri several times each year to visit relatives. I took both Greyhound and Continental Trailways buses by myself, from the age of 10 to 15 to visit Grandma Ruth's farm in Neosho, Mo (outside Joplin). I'll never forget the 90 degree hiway turns negotiated by the buses, as 66 followed some of the farm to market roads of the 20's, respecting the farm layouts. I'm probably one of the few people around who knows what a "Sangamo Tachograph" is, and I'd love to hear from anyone else who does know. My wife and I have traveled parts of 66 four different years, now, and we plan more. We intend to motorcycle the whole Route from Chicago to LA. Long Live the Mother Road!! steve jones

Will join the H.O.G.tour that begins in June, Milwaukee to Ontario. My wife and I will only be able to hook up from Amarillo to Albuquerque, just a little bit of the Mother Road. I can recall this route as a 10 year old in 1960, traveling in (I think) an Oldsmobile 88. I remember watching the speedometer "ribbon" as it changed from yellow to red as our speed increased. I expect one could amass millions of stories, no doubt more interesting than mine. At least I remember it was fun.

I first travel Route 66 in Oct of 1942 when my parents moved from Oologah, Oklahoma to work in the defense naval base at Port Hueneme, Calif. I was 13 at the time, but remember traveling the Route in a 1936 Chevy 1-1/2 truck with my seven siblings, the youngest being 1 year old. The trip was made in Oct. after the fall grain crops were harvested, and to travel the Calif Majave Desert while the weather was cooler.

I have never traveled Route 66, but one of my fondest memories is when the TV show came to Niagara Falls in 1963 to film two episodes. I remember my friends and I hanging out at the hotel and the state park where they were filming hoping to meet "Buzz" and "Linc". I'm happy to say we did get to meet them several times during their stay here. We found them to be very gracious, charming and patient with us. One episode was shown the following season; the other was never shown at that time. I did finally get to see it when re-runs of the show were shown in the late 1980's on cable TV! I often wondered why the show came here, New York not being even close to where Route 66 begins! times

I drove from Chicago to Bellflower, Calif, with my friend Johnny Fox. This was in 1940, and I will never forget that trip. On the last leg, we drove from Tucumcari, New Mexico to Bellflower in one steady drive. Foud a truck tire in the middle of the road in the kaibeb forest in Arizona, and brought it all the way home. Sold it in Los Angeles, and got enough to pay for most of the gas coming out. There will never be another road like Route 66, and there will never be times like we had when the road was in operation. God bless everyone that traveled this historic road.

In late March 1968 I drove with three girls from Delaware to Los Angeles and back on our college's spring break. Our '59 VW broke down in St. Louis, so we got a drive-away car ('68 Chevy Impala SS) and drove Route 66 from St. Louis to LA. It took four days and was adventure-packed. We had run-ins with the police in Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Arizona. We stole a Rt. 66 sign in Texas, but the police in Arizona stole it back from us. My favorite line from the drive was from a woman running a snack stand in the Mojave Desert somewhere between Needles and Barstow. When I protested at the price of a corn dog (maybe $1.50), she said, "Whaddya want? This is the desert!" In short, all the glamourous stories I had heard were true. It was one of the best drives of my life.

Tom Powell and I became lost on Route66 Memorial Day 96 when we accidently got trapped on a toll road to Tulsa. Desparte to get back to Oklahoma City we discoved the only way back was Route 66. Tom and I have a long distance relationship. He is in Kansas and I am in Texas. Oklahoma City is a half way point for us to meet. Being lost on the "mother road" in a thuder-storm added even more romance to our brief time together. We have decided to try to make the entire road trip one day. I can't wait for the adventure.

In late June, 1942, when I was 13 years old, my Aunt, Uncle & two cousins from Hawaii picked me up in Thorntown, IN and took me to LA on Route 66. We pulled a new house trailer all the way, add to this gas rationing, recapped tires and tremendous heat...thought we would never get there. What memories! The zoos. I poured coke on a rattlesnake (in a pen), remember the pop coolers, the neon lights? Oh yes, we did get off of R66 and go down to White City and tour the Carlsbad Caverns. Then after about six weeks staying with my Grand parents in LA, I got on a Greyhound Bus, with the motor up in front, and came all the way back to Indianapolis by myself. What a treat for a 13 year old from a small town in Indiana. Made the trip again with my parents in October, 1947 with my parents from LA to Indy...

I've been a long time fan of Route 66. I travel the road whenever possible with friends and my daughters, Brooke and Heather. This year, I've travelled 4,500 miles in three trips to the Mother Road this year. I went to The Fun Run in Arizona, I just came back from a trip through Santa Fe, Albequerque, to Amarillo. I travelled on a Kawasaki Voyager motorcycle with my friends, Dave Merrill and Tom Schrah, Jr. I have a Rock and Blues band called "Nasty Neon & the Route 66 Band". We began playing together 30 years ago in jr high school. Band members are my cousin, Steve Mares on bass and vocals, my uncle Manuel Mares on Keyboards and vocals, and Tony and Debroah Silva on guitar and vocals, respectively. If you want to hire us for your next event, please contact me. We play hundreds of car tunes! We'd love to play anywhere in the world, including Japan and Germany. My license plates on my Corvette are ROUTE66. I collect Route 66 memorabilia. Keep the Mother Road alive! Travel the road and support those who have businesses along the way. I've met many people who have been written about in books and in videos. People like Angel Delgadillo, Lillian Redman, Mike Carrens, Bob Wildmire. Talk to them, get their autographs, get a picture with them. My ultimate dream is to open a Route 66 Diner in Golden, Colorado. I'm the Art Director for NEWS 4 /CBS in Denver. Check out our web site at <kcncnews4.com> We have cameras on the web. Check out the weather in Denver if you're flying in, or just have friends living here. Colorado is a beautiful state.

Memories: playing alphabet with road signs, BURMA SHAVE signs, visiting relatives on Navajo reservation near Gallup, my Dad lining us all up by Hwy. signs for a picture of "Entering New Mexico, Arizona, etc." As a teen avoiding the Turner Turnpike toll of $1.25 by driving Old 66 between Tulsa and Okla.

What I want to ask all Rt. 66 fanatics is: Why did it start in Chicago and go SW, instead of following a more-or-less straight line like the rest do? And Chicago has 20 through it! Why is 66 so far north?

I've traveled the route since 1951 from Chicago to San Bernardino, CA at least twice a year. Many fond memories of fabulose sunsets and locations. The best memories were of the road signs, Berma shave, Indian trading posts, Whitting Brothers Gas stations, drive ins, Neon lighted Hotels, two headed snakes, baffalo rides, Small town parades and rodeos. We were always happy to cross the Colorado river in Needles and the Mississippi in St. Louis. The desert's were hard, cold and hot. This is my second home on the Route 66.
