"Ken and his Red Indian" by Rodger L. Fox in loving memory of Ken Vetrovec

"Ken and his Red Indian"

On your Red Indian you found the End of the Trail
you met with the challenge of Old Route 66
and conquered the road all the way to Santa Monica Pier
never once expecting the end was near.

You finished the ride as happy as could be
knowing now the mystery of Old Route 66
headed home to share your tails from the trip
not knowing around the corner you were going to make one little slip

The trip ended for you in the twinkle of an eye
but you had had your fix, you conquere… Continue

20th Annual IL RT 66 ASSOC Motor Tour/Logan County Route 66 Garage Sales JUNE 13-14,2009 ie. My 1st Motor Tour

Saturday
Late morning around 11:00 a.m. we headed out for Atlanta to start our day of Garage Sales. First off we went to the newly reopened Palms Grill for lunch, they were busy. I had a bacon cheeseburger, Wendy had the egg salad sandwhich, and Charlie had a hot dog. They also serve a cup of soup with almost every meal, it was Bean Soup and it was very good! I purchased a solid brass pin in the shape of a spoon with Palm trees on top for my collection. After lunch I did my usual of takin… Continue

New Facebook application "Get Your Kicks on 66"

I recently had the pleasure of receiving a gift from another 66 roadie via my facebook page. They had sent me a "Cozy Dog and Fries" and in return I sent out a "Ted Drewes Frozen Concrete". It was nice to see a lot of the Mother Road icons featured on this app. Feel free to look me up and be my friend. Also, be sure to add a ROUTE 66 PEOPLE badge to your facebook page and support/share America's Main Street with the world.

Pontiac Kite Festival 5.30.09

The family and I decided to head north to the annual Pontiac Kite Festival. Charlie was very excited about going and being able to fly his kites. We took 66 all the way there from home. Along the way I stopped at the Lawndale PO to add a postmark to my ongoing map project, luckily we arrived 5 minutes before they closed at 9 a.m. The clerk had already switched the handstamp to Monday and had to change it back. He was very nice and applied a good clear strike. We continued onward to Atlanta for s… Continue
