A Route 66 Update
April 7th, 2009
We spent a day and a half on Illinois’ alignment of the Mother Road last month.
A few observations:
Pontiac: Great new signage showing all alignments, including the original one through the square. Also, a new Lincoln sculpture in the square. The great old Downtowner Motel still closed, unfortunately.
Funks Grove Sirip– Had just finished maple sirup production for the year with a better than average production. Alas, out of maple candy. That is a correct spelling of sirup when it has no sugar added.
Cozy Dog in Springfield: Still serving those great corn dogs. I don’t know which is better, the Cozy Dogs or French fries. New Golden Corral right down the street, though. Decisions, decisions.
Don,
Hey thanks for the Route 66 updates. Very cool!
