Remembering the Past: Rte 66 Memorabalia

Challenge #10 in the Remembering the Past series. Hosted by libertylady.

Challenge has finished

I have just returned from a long absence and took a long drive down Rte 66 in AZ, NM, and TX. There are a lot of memorabalia along that rte from when the "Mother Road" was alive and well (before I40). It could be a building, sign, or anything that depicts the essence of these memories. Without this, the entry will be disqualified. Have fun.
