I didn't have wirless last night, so now have catch up. We started Sunday from El Reno, OK on Route 66; due to lack of signs we didn't stay on it all day long (oh yea, back on I-40 again). We did stop at the National Route 66 museum in Elk River, OK. We saw many, many, many, many cows and miles of ranch land. We felt like we were driving in a western movie set, except for the occasional modern wind mill farm we passed. I thought it was an interesting drive as we have never been in that part of the country. We proceeded to the Cadillac Ranch near Amarillo. What a quirky thing - its a line of 9 vintage Cadillacs stuck in the ground that people stop & spray paint on. Hard to believe how many people were stopped there - no signage, we only read about it in a book. A lady handed me a can of spray paint, so away I went! It was a quick, funny stop. We were going to stop in Amarillo TX, but decided to make it to Tucumcari. First time I've ever seen a 75 mile per hour speed limit sign once we hit New Mexico. That sped up our arrival in Tucumcari. Once again, we referred to the guide books (thank you Linda & John Monville for the Route 66 book) and stayed at the Blue Swallow Motel, an original traveler's court on Route 66. Fun, vintage place to stay; the owner loved Larry.
