Missouri Route 66 - Gray Summit

GRAY SUMMIT, MISSOURI. The big Diamonds/Gardenway sign in Gray Summit is getting a little ratty, and is now missing a letter on top. The Gardenway Motel is still open for business nearby, but the old Diamonds Restaurant, opened in 1927, has been gone for a while now. This is the intersection of MO 100 and U.S. 66, a choice location in its day, but nearby Interstate 44 took that all away.
