Route 66 Centennial Road Trip 1st stop... Dell Rhea Chicken Basket & Cocktail Lounge in Willowbrook Illinois. Route 66 vibe but lots of locals. Not a pure tourist spot by any means

I recently traveled a large section of Route 66, and after stopping at ghost towns and vandalized buildings along the way, I was shocked at how much of America’s iconic history has been erased. Smashed, spray-painted over, stomped into the ground—obliterating the most iconic era in America’s story: the booming post-war years when the country was on the move. Route 66 originally stretched 2,448 miles across eight states, lined with diners, motels, dance halls, zoos, taverns, swimming pools, and roadside attractions that kept small towns alive. I can’t help but wonder why more measures weren’t taken to preserve such nostalgic places? The skeletons scattered along the Mother Road now stand as a reminder of how quickly history can vanish.

Route 66, the "Mother Road" stretching from Chicago to Los Angeles, was also a place for drivers to "get their kicks." Though long bypassed by interstates, the historic highway, home of scenic vistas and roadside curiosities, continues to attract travelers searching for an America of yesterday. Correspondent Lee Cowan takes a drive along Route 66, which is now marking its centennial.

Ireland’s drowning in mass immigration. Borders wide open, towns unrecognizable, culture fading fast. The government betrayed the Irish people for globalism!

Route 66 Centennial Road Trip. Do you like old gas stations? This one in Dwight Illinois used to be the oldest continuously operating service station on Route 66 until it shut down in 1999 But, since there's an electric vehicle charger here, is it really out of commission?

Burros and a gumfight at Oatman AZ! Freaking burros are chill. Great little diversion on Route 66. Take the drive from Kingman if you have a choice because that puts you on the scenic "cliff" side of the road.
