Uncovering The Corners Of The World

In the "Oil Capital of the World," we grab our cameras and take photos of the tallest oil derrick (currently) in North America at the Route 66 Historical Village. Next, we put on an apron and "serve" soda at the National Route 66 Museum and Old Town Village as we visit each museum to see antique cars and rare historical documents that capture Route 66 and the early life in Oklahoma. Lastly, in a living ghost town, we tug the door to the One Room Jail in Texola, OK.

About 400 miles of Route 66 runs diagonally through Oklahoma, our next state on our Route 66 trip. In Arcadia, we walk around the only wooden round barn on Route 66. Next, we take a bite of the legendary Route 66 cookies at Dairy King, in Commerce, OK. Lastly, just across the street from Dairy King, we take a few photos of a service station where supposedly Bonnie and Clyde might have stopped there for gas.

Before we part ways with Missouri, we take a train ride at the National Museum of Transportation.

In Galena, Kansas, we meet the characters from the 2006 animated movie Cars (Lightning McQueen, Tow Mater, Luigi, and more) scattered on Kansas's 12.8-mile stretch of Route 66. Lastly, we fasten our seatbelts as we drive on a bridge built in 1923.

Next one our Route 66 road trip is Missouri where the road extends for more than 280 miles in the state. Our first stop is in Cuba, Missouri, to see The World’s 2nd Largest Rocking Chair, but the only largest rocking chair on Route 66. Next, we calculate time using Missouri’s Stonehenge before cooling off at Grand Falls in Joplin, MO.

Happy New Year 2024!

We start the new year by maneuvering a 30,000 lb wheel loader (excavator) at a heavy-equipment playground on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada. Next, while on the "Loneliest Road in America," we cross the border to the Republic of Molossia. Then we stop by the Stokes Castle, a three-story granite tower in the Nevada desert.
