In 2017 we drove the route66 and took lots of pictures of Road Signs.
U.S. Route 66 or simply Route 66 (US66) was a historic highway (U.S. Highway) in the United States with a length of 3,940 km. The route opened in 1926 and many Americans used it to migrate west, including during the Dust Bowl. Route 66 appealed to the imagination, became a symbol of post-war optimism and played an important role in American culture. Other names for Route 66 are Will Rogers Highway, Main Street of America and The Mother Road.
The route ran from Chicago to Santa Monica near Los Angeles and crossed eight states. In 1985, the route was officially discontinued because it was no longer relevant as the Interstate Highway System had taken over long-distance travel. Parts of the route can still be driven and are a tourist attraction.
