Route 66 was a mostly two lane highway that extended from Chicago to Los Angeles, through Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before gradually giving up to the modern interstate. Most of the old pavement is still there, and can be followed with the right maps and directions. I drove the entire length of old 66 in 2012, and invite you to follow along!

Missouri Route 66 - Carthage
CARTHAGE, MISSOURI. The new owners of the
Boots Motel are conducting major restorations at the old motor court.
The refurbished rooms are just gorgeous, and they're filled with period
pieces and antiques to take you back to an earlier era of Route 66. The
restored bathrooms are clean and modern, yet with a 1940's feel, as the
original fixtures and tiles have been retained whenever possible.
