Get your kicks on route 66!

The nice part of our journey to and from California, for the Rose Parade,without the camper attached was our ability to jump on and off the "Mother Road" Route 66!  We enjoyed about 120 miles of the legendary Route 66 and some places allowed for speeds close to 70 mph!  The little towns we encountered were priceless with the rustic home town feel and others were literally abandoned!  We found a cool little cafe just inside of Seligman,Arizona called the Roadkill Cafe so we stopped for some grub!  The whole time I was driving this road I could here the music from Bryson's movie "Cars" going through my head and we actually saw a motel called the "Cozy Cove with Tee Pee shaped rooms!  The Route 66 experience did not disappoint but it is kind of sad to see the death of these little towns due to the rerouting of traffic via the I-40 interstate!  This drive is on my list of "Must See" and we will definitely drive this road again.  Maybe next time with the top down on a nice American made muscle car rumbling along with some good tunes on the radio!
