Route 66-based story (by OC,SH’s founder, inspired by his 09/2009 Route 66 road trip)
CHAPTER 74:Â OF CARS & RABBITS
By the time the shopkeeper dropped the middle sibling off at the family business, the 2 brothers had already visited the gas station in Mount Olive IL & visited Benld IL & were en route to Staunton IL.

With nobody else there at that time of the morning, just after 8:30a, the eldest parked the Caprice right near the front door, where Rich was waiting for them with a smile, & a bunny rabbit.
After some greetings & pleasantries, Rich showed the brothers around the place … the VW Ra66it Ranch (VWs in the ground, much like the Cadillac Ranch in TX), his live rabbits & a 1973 Monte Carlo he bought brand new & plans to restore “some day”. Then, around 9:20a, the youngest started setting up for the live remote broadcast….
