Good to see he is fine ❤ Hi London I remember you when you were little and going to Disney with your Dad, hope you have a wonderful adventure with your Dad You are a lucky guy to have a Dad that wants to make this trip and memories with you.

    Hi Justin & London. I've only been a subscriber for a month but Im having fun in your archives and you two are the best. The Wigwam Motel originally had seven different locations: two locations in Kentucky and one each in Alabama, Florida, Arizona, Louisiana, and California. I live 70 miles SSE of the Cave City, Kentucky location in Tennessee. Mammoth Cave National Park is the big attraction there. Loving this trip , thanks.

    I live in Snowflake and went to La Posada for lunch a few days ago. One of my favorite historical hotels. I also stopped at a couple rock shops and trading posts, giving the locals some business. When going through Holbrook I noticed some history had been torn down once again. I couldn't remember what was there before though. Kinda glad you didn't say, I get really upset. So happy to see other people who treasure history and that you are teaching your son to do the same. ♥

      Michael Wallis’ 1990 book “Route 66 The Mother Road,” is the Bible for us older Route 66 enthusiasts. Michael’s writing and public speaking engagements are legendary and continue to inspire new generations of 66 fans.

    Wow! I didn't know the Jack Rabbit Trading Post was still there! On trips back east from California as a kid I would look for the black rabbit cutouts on hill tops and roadsides for miles before you actually arrived at the place. I used to have a copper key chain from there my mom bought me in the 60's. I remember they used to have a lot of authentic Native American pottery.

    Yeah...When I seen them demolishing that old Gas Station I shook my head. Then found out they were going to build another Dollar General when we already have one on top of the hill. Funny thing is they built a Family Dollar/Dollar tree down the street from the New DG. So Holbrook has 2 dollar generals in this small town. lol. I'd rather have 2 Circle K's like we did in the early 90's. The one downtown closed and is now a Auto Shop. You can tell from the old style Circle K building with the big overhang front.

    Yeah the drive on I-40 has not been the same ever since the wigwams got moved. When I was younger and we drove to L.A. or Vegas. They used to be on an exit that served as an interchange from old 6y to I-40. Pretty sure it was in Winslow. Because as A kid I was estatic to see them. It told me that in another hour or so I would be getting out of the car in Flaggstaff for a good while to streech and eat an actual meal.

    London is just a bit more like that. He absolutely would have refused to be a part of the trip if he didn’t want to go. Have you ever tried to make a teen do something?

    London's excessive verbosity could be a real draw in vuture videos 😂😂. I think it's a boy thing. Neither of my grandsons are talkers. Mind you one is Autistic and unless it's a computer game or has gears, holds very little interest. The other is ADHD and he's too busy taking everything in to make comments. I do love these Route 66 episodes though. No matter how many you do, there is always something new and different.
