Route 66 was a mostly two lane highway that extended from Chicago to Los Angeles, through Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before gradually giving up to the modern interstate. Most of the old pavement is still there, and can be followed with the right maps and directions. After initially driving the entire length, I return often for shorter runs, both for the incredible photography and to visit the many friends I have made along the way.

Route 66 - Just over the border into Kansas.
One of the many pleasures of traveling Route 66 is the frequent ability to just pull over to the side of the road when the mood strikes, whether to explore America away from the interstate, or to meet someone new.
