Drive route 66

“Those of you old enough to remember the old "Burma Shave" highway signs will be pleased to know that they are strung out all along U.S. 66 between Peach Springs and Seligman. As soon as Kathy spotted the first sign, we knew what was coming: [...] We passed eight sets of Burma Shave signs (four sets on each side of the highway) before reaching Seligman and the best diner in town: [...] We ate hearty! Kathy chose an elk burger and David picked homemade chili with homemade bread. Yum!”

“But I drove Route 66 eastward from Los Angeles as far as Albuquerque, so I will organize these posts in a series of stages moving from west to east. [...] But moving east is equally frustrating because Pasadena, Arcadia, Monrovia, San Dimas, and Glendora have also suffered from extreme urban sprawl. 66 is essentially gone. [...] The waypoints on my Garmin GPS showed features along the way, but all were gone, overrun by modern malls and concrete.”
