Well, it was a great day! Got to Adams St and Michigan Ave in Chicago this morning - the official beginning of Route 66. Headed south and stopped in Joliet for the Rt 66 Museum and lunch. We arrived in Springfield at about 6:00pm this evening.
It's been an absolutely beautiful day weatherwise - sunny and in the mid-80's! I have taken a bunch to pictures, but have not had time to download and edit them. Plan to do that later.
We are staying in a bed & breakfast in downtown Springfield (within walking distance of the Capitol building, Lincoln Library and Museum, and his house. Place is called the Pasfield House - very neat old home. More on it in a later post as well. We will be here until Saturday morning when we pack up and head for St Louis.
Right now we are off to see a few sites and have a corn dog at a Rt 66 icon.
Until the next post,
Captain Ken
