Your Own Personal Iron Man...Only(?) $50K!

Seen standing tall in the lower gallery of the Santa Fe Arcade, this faithful recreation would certainly take any man cave to the the next level. Robert Downey Jr. not included (but for that price maybe he could make an appearance for the unveiling)

Stickers On The Inside Of The Rt 66 Drive-Thru Arch, Grants NM


There was a TSG sticker scheme in the works, but it kind of got lost in the shuffle of pre-trip preparations. So obviously we're a little bummed that we can't contribute a "TSG Was Here" kinda thing when we see an (apparently) community-tolerated sticker wall like this.

@ The Wigwam

Another iconic Rt 66 spot, the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook (one of only 3 remaining "Wigwam Villages). Unfortunately we've found it impossible to book a room over the years -- we've yet to have a phone call answered and every time we've been there the office has been closed. Obvioualy someone is working the reservation desk--all the Teepees seen to be occupied whenever we pass by.

No Cheeseburger W/Cheese or Dead Chicken For Us

 Delgadillo's Snow Cap Drive-In is a Route 66 institution and we always stop in for a bite when we pass through Seligman AZ. 

Despite the popular(?) menu items featured in the establishment's signage, our traditional order is a side of O-rings and a small drink.

The Truth Is Out There?

Seen en route to Barstow this afternoon at the Edwards Air Force Base off ramp/overpass:  what is obviously the remains of an alien craft being transported to...Area 51, perhaps?
