Litchfield IL annual route 66 Car Cruise 6/27/09 and side trip to Henry's Ra66it Ranch

Saturday morning my son was looking at pictures and saw us sitting on the Jackrabbit at Henry's Ra66it Ranch in Staunton IL. He then asked if he can go see the bunnies and ride the big one. Since the car show was going on we loaded up the car and headed South to Litchfield. It was another HOT day in the 90's. There were a few carnival rides this year, an antique tractor show, a Big Foot car crushing show, 3 NASCAR cars, a few vendors, and the classic cars. Did I mention it was hot? Charlie saw… Continue

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.

D.A.R.E. Ride

Spent yesterday morning cleaning my wife's bike only to run out of time to adequately clean mine, but we left Springfield with about 200 other bikes on a 140 mile (round trip) ride to Lucas Speedway to see the dirt track races. While the races were enjoyable, they seemed to lack something from the spectator viewpoint. You see, years ago I raced Sports Cars and Dirt Track Modifieds. Maybe this had something to do with my enjoyment. Anyway we made it home safely, in the dark,



We're… Continue

Restore Twin Arrows for Arizona Centennial

The state of Arizona is taking comments on places that show an aspect of Arizona history that should be restored for the centennial in 2012.
