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!

Oklahoma Route 66 - Arcadia
Flowers are always a nice touch on an old stone ruin
Conoco Filling Station, Arcadia
ARCADIA, OKLAHOMA. The rock wall remains of a
former Conoco filling station, built around 1920. The station closed in
the 1930's when the owners were caught with a printing press for $10
bills, or so goes the Route 66 legend.
