100 Things to Do on Route 66 Before You Die, 2nd edition
Author: Jim Hinckley
Publisher: Reedy Press LLC
ISBN: 1681065193
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
Officially it doesn’t exist. On June 27, 1985, the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials voted to decertify US 66 and to remove all its highway signs. And yet iconic Route 66 is more popular and more famous than any time in its nearly 100-year history. Tour companies based in New Zealand, Australia, Germany, the Czech Republic, and other countries specialize in Route 66 tours. There are Route 66 associations in Japan, Canada, Germany, Netherlands, Czech Republic, and other countries that organize tours and events. Enthusiasts from throughout the world attended the European Route 66 Festival in Germany, and in 2018, in Zlin, Czechia. There is an infectious magic about a Route 66 adventure. Quirky attractions, time capsule motels trimmed in colorful neon, fascinating museums, and charming restaurants and diners, some owned by the same family since the 1920s, are part of the allure. But what really gives the road a vibrancy is the passionate people who preserve the road’s unique culture. I didn’t write 100 Things to Do on Route 66 Before You Die as a tour guide. It was written to enhance a Route 66 odyssey. From its inception it was envisioned as a companion to guides such as the popular EZ 66 Guide for Travelers written by the acclaimed artist Jerry McClanahan or the Route 66 Navigation app. The foundation for Jim Hinckley’s America is a passion for sharing America’s story, and for inspiring road trips by telling people where to go. And that is what this book is: 100 of my favorite places on Route 66 where the line between America’s past, present, and future is blurred, and where the best of Route 66 can be experienced.
