Well, I love to go to historic sites--lots of them have been named here--but it took quite a bit of research and effort to drive down historic Route 66 a few years ago. We made it from Chicago to Quapaw, Oklahoma, and stopped at every recognizable 'tourist attraction' on the way!

For some reason, after reading a book about it, I just *had* to go drive it! (Grass and weeds growing up through the road in some places--many parts of it are abandoned--but you can still patch your way through with a good co-pilot, a map, and a sense of adventure...)

I think more of it is labeled now, and better maps are available, too.
