Well if you ever plan to motor west
Travel my way
Take the highway that's the best
Get your kicks on Route 66
Well it winds from Chicago
To LA
More than two thousand miles
All the way🎶

Eggs @gradcat as an adult I‘ve wanted to road trip the entirety of rte 66, but haven‘t yet. Although I‘ve been to it‘s western endpoint at the Santa Monica pier 6y
gradcat Me too. And I have driven some of it, but certainly not all. I have some friends who did it—they loved it! I think it would be a great road trip. 6y

"Brits on Route 66" is a must read for anyone looking to travel the historic "Mother road " of America. With hints about places to visit & how to book, complete with their addresses, it's a must have for travelling along Route 66. Also, the author's personal experiences that she narrates in this book give you a real sense of closeness to her & an insight to the magic of the journey.

We had my daughter's party last night. I am so proud of this cake. She took this photo at the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook, AZ while we were on vacation last summer. She got the photo developed on edible paper so she could put it on the cake. Beautiful and delicious!

Redwritinghood Very pretty cake! 6y
Velvetfur That cake is fantastic! Love the photo 👍 6y
belacat She is taking a photography class in high school. Her teacher really liked this photo. I'm crossing my fingers that it will make the district art show in the spring. 6y
