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!

Texas Route 66 - Adrian
ADRIAN, TEXAS. Halfway! This 66er
had previously traveled the entire length of Route 66, from Chicago to
L.A., several times, but never accomplished the journey all in one shot.
That was my goal for this 2012 trip, so the halfway
point had some meaning for me this time. I walked over to the midpoint
sign, was thankful I was not sitting at a desk somewhere, looked out
over miles and miles of Texas all around me, then went inside the
MidPoint Cafe for some pie!
