Route 66

All of America

The American Dream has always looked west but for the dreamers wanting to go west, there was no way until Route 66 came along. plus the kinds of things it created .just think of all the motels, dinner and odd attractions along the way. all the people from John Stinebeak to Charles Kuralt. Route 66 is a simble of capitalism and freedom to all of the world.

Agree with Route 66, for the reasons above. And paradoxically, in addition to representing and enabling the American desire to settle and explore the West, it also represents the current decline of Western small town life as route 66 and its local attractions are bypassed and rendered "obsolete" by superhighways.
