As I mentioned last week, my most-memorable road trip perhaps was September 2009 along Route 66. The journey started Saturday, 09/05/2009; I didn’t know how my life would change. Day 2 (Sunday, 09/06/2009) started with a brief stop at Springfield IL’s Cozy Dog Restaurant & ended at Meramec Caverns in MO. In between, I had memorable visits in Auburn (Becky’s Barn) & Staunton (Henry’s Ra66it Ranch) IL. I took this pic in Girard IL, which had a cool “town square”, reminiscent of the one in Hazzard County!
