Route 66 trip

I learned the hard way that in cities where softball is popular it's hard to just walk in and get a hotel room for one night during softball season.

Nope. I-40 going West out of OKC. It's very flat. Especially, the further you get from OKC.

Yes. My point/question was what was he doing on I44; thought this was a Rt66 trip. Reckon he's gonna pick up 66 further along, tho Oklahoma has more miles of 66 than any other state as I understand it...
Either way - appreciate the updates and photos. Lets us sorta travel along vicariously.

We have had to dip on and off 66 here and there depending on what the captain says.
We have reservations for certain activities that must be met. And jumping on the interstate has been helpful in covering for time management deficits.

Take Old 66 (Central Ave) West out of Albaturkey at night and stop at the top of Angel's View...an amazing light show every night.

I used to sleep there every chance I got... Was the perfect sunrise to wake up to in my Peterbilt.

Stayed here years ago, it was very good. They have an on-site BBQ restaurant that will deliver to your campsite.
Hope it's still as good as it was 15 years ago.

This guy took a 4 week road trip in his 1929 Model A from NH to CA & back 3 years ago. I'd love to do the same in one of my Chargers some time in the future.

There's some Rt66 photos in the video.

Why doesn't the Lincoln Highway get any love?
