Map Us!

November 14, 2013 by Patti 18 Comments

I know I said in my last post – The Finer Things in Life – that aside from the fact we will arrive in Washington, D.C. for the holidays, we have no set plans or destinations in mind for our upcoming 2-month road trip; and that is the truth of the matter.

See the USA in Your Chevrolet

November 10, 2013 by Patti 26 Comments

If you’re of a certain age you may remember the classic commercial, “See the USA in Your Chevrolet.”  You can’t read the words without singing the melody, right?

Cary Grant & Mt. Rushmore

September 29, 2013 by Patti 6 Comments

After setting up camp in our 3-month rental house, in our new life in Ashland, OR, we had several weeks to call our own before we took ownership of what is now our B&B.  We took care of a few matters of business and spent time scouting out our new town.  When the time was right we packed our son’s car and drove it across country with a plan to cross off Mt. Rushmore from our must see list.

Route 66: The American Classic Road Trip

September 22, 2013 by Patti 20 Comments

There is something incredibly special about traveling Route 66; The American classic road trip.  I recently connected with someone on Twitter who said he has gone out and discovered something new along the Route over 200 times – very impressive I’d say.

Route 66: Old Santa Fe Loop

September 8, 2013 by Patti 6 Comments

At this point in our trip we had planned to drive the old Santa Fe Loop, which is the section of Route 66 that was used between the years of 1926 and 1937 and it turned out to be an awesome drive.  After this period, Route 66 was constructed near the current interstate.

Route 66: Tucumcari, NM – Who Knew?!

September 3, 2013 by Patti 9 Comments

As we entered Tucumcari, New Mexico, we knew it was going to be one of those places where we wished we had more time so we could stay a day or two.  I’m looking forward to retracing our drive one day so we can plan accordingly based on the unexpected discoveries of this trip.

Route 66: Cadillac Ranch & the Half Way Point

August 30, 2013 by Patti 12 Comments

Following Route 66 while driving across the Texas panhandle was nothing to write home about.  No offense meant to any Texans out there, but whoa… there’s just nothing out there and it’s just how we saw it.  Until we found the infamous Cadillac Ranch.

Route 66: Fort Reno & Clinton, Oklahoma

August 23, 2013 by Patti 8 Comments

Leaving Oklahoma City we easily picked up Route 66 and followed it for quite awhile.  We happened upon, of all places, the Fort at El Reno which is on the Chisholm Trail and then we found ourselves in Clinton, Oklahoma.  Both unexpected stops, but both were well-appreciated.

Route 66 – Oklahoma City Memorial

August 19, 2013 by Patti 8 Comments

When we drove Route 66 in 2008 we had a basic game plan, but some of the most memorable times on our trip were the unplanned side trips and stops at places we didn’t realize would even fall into our path – such as finding the national memorial in Oklahoma City, or Abraham Lincoln’s home in Springfield, Illinois.

Route 66 – Independence & The Ingalls Homestead

August 17, 2013 by Patti 8 Comments

While visiting Rocky Ridge Farm – home of Laura Ingalls Wilder and her husband, Almanzo – we met two moms and their young daughters who were on their own special road trip; following the travels of the Ingalls family. When we told them we were following Route 66 and would be passing through a corner of Kansas, they eagerly encouraged us to take a side trip to Independence, KS to visit the Ingalls homestead.  And that’s just what we did.
