I-40 picked up the old Rte. 66 somewhere along the way, maybe Little Rock, maybe Oklahoma City. But it is the 100th anniversary of Rte 66 so I enjoyed thinking about my parents driving on part Of it in. St. Louis at least. Here we continued from Santa Rosita to Gallup NM, then left both highways to go north to CO.
It is very important to preserve these relics from the past. I hope that some of the kids put away their smart phones for a day to enjoy a little history.
Thanks for commenting! I tried moderating, thinking that would be a quicker way to check on comments, but actually it takes more time. So go ahead and talk amongst yourselves, and I'll check in when I can!!
...the hotels remind me of some that were in the Adirondack Mountains in upper New York State. Times sure do change.
ReplyDeleteYes, the era of going to the mountains for summertime sprouted all those gorgeous old hotels. Now people come and stay in a B&B, or rent a home.
