Route 66
It is time to get our kicks on Route 66. Being in Amarillo, we started our journey at Cadillac Ranch. Barefoot in the mud puddles, the kids spray painted the finned caddies. FUN! Along the Mother Road, we saw abandoned homes, motels, gas stations and towns that most people have forgotten. We visited the Oklahoma Route 66 Museum in Clinton which does a good job of capturing the nostalgia of America’s Main Street. It took us hours but we finally made it to Springfield, Missouri at 9:30pm. It was a L.O.N.G. day.
