I've read that many people used to travel the entire distance just for the fun of it, where does it end at, CA? Did you ever drive it, that sounds like something you'd do! lol.
Well that's pretty dang good. I just looked it up and what I found on a couple of sites said that 85% of the route is still intact and driveable. So it would still be a fun road trip! I think there are still tons of original diners and restaurants and sights to visit.
Oh really!? Very interesting..a couple of times, must be a die hard fan!
Ha, I just looked at his site, pipurilla, and that was the last thing he posted about. I don't recall seeing that username until now.
He is a dear friend and hasn't been nearly active enough lately. I think of him everytime I make Bouneschlupp which is the green bean soup that he taught me to make.
It does start in Chicago, at Michigan Ave very close to Lake Michigan. It crosses Illinois and Missouri before heading your way!

I've only driven sections... IL, MO, NM,and AZ of the old Rt. 66. I40 has replaced much of the road, I think.

85%! I had no idea! I know @molometer has done the trip and @pipurilla has traveled the whole route a couple of times.
