My most-memorable road trip perhaps was September 2009 along Route 66. I began the journey Saturday, 09/05/2009, not having a clue how my life would change over the course of the next 2 weeks. Day 1 started with a side trip to Franklin Grove IL, the headquarters of the Lincoln Highway Association. I also stopped here, Dixon IL, to see the famous arch. Near this location, the Lincoln Highway departs from Illinois Route 38.
The Dixon arch! My friends got married in Dixon right after college. That’s the only time I’ve ever been. We tried to go to Taco Bell for late night food and they were closed so we settled for some gas station burritos. We even brought a couple back for the bride and groom.
