Alright - I just threw together a recap of Thomas's Route 66 adventures to post on another forum for a person who was going to plan their Route 66 trip. Here is the rundown. I think I caught all of them. Starts on pg 588 - post 11744 pg 600 - post 11997 - Joliet IL, to Cuba, MO pg 601 - post...

Thanks Thomas, for the amazingly detailed recap of your trip, and sharing that with us. Enjoyed the heck out of it! --Jeff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thomas, I totally understand the let down from the Cadillac ranch. I passed by several times as a kid in the 80's and it was in much better shape. I totally love the idea of the pristine Caddy's still being out there. I had the opportunity to take my kids out there last spring, and while the...

Thomas, I must apologize, I am thoroughly confused by your comment above. I'm trying to figure out how you bypassed Tulsa going from Commerce to Miami (pronounced Mi-am-a, for those not familiar with the nuances of the Oklahoma spelling)? Love, love, love the play by play! Especially the...

Ahhh, The Wagon Wheel... Made a quick stop by there last summer when we went through on the way home from visiting family in Irvington IL. Ate lunch next door at Missouri Hicks barbecue. Glad to see another episode of the route 66 saga. Can't wait for the next one! Thank Thomas for making...

Re: Route 66 Trip; In The Begining I can't wait to hear the next installment!! Jeff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I second this. Growing up in Tulsa as a kid, route 66 was always there. I just took it for granted. I have began digging on history and gathering maps so I can hopefully make the same trip you just did. I've wandered off on some short alignments once when I headed out to California. And of...

I would love to see the contents of that old tool chest. The stories those old tools could tell would be priceless, I'm certain. The first thing I thought of when I saw that was the studley tool chest. I'll bet there are some gems in there. --Jeff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Man that's a cozy looking fire Thomas! Hopefully you are taking at least a few minutes to relax in front of that! Jeff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That looks great! Looks like that pad was made for it!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No ill will meant. Just meant that it wouldn't be like Thomas to overlook that. Also having just reworked all my gas lines when putting in new HVAC units and water heater over the last year and we used the blue monster tape and dope. And I verified it was good prior to using. Sent from my...

You guys really think a guy like Thomas has overlooked this? The can of blue monster that I have definitely lists natural gas and propane as recommended applications. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I know what you mean. Would drive me bonkers. You don't wanna go to Disney world and see Chuck E Cheese. You want the real stuff! (Thanks Rodney Carrington!) I wouldn't have noticed until you said something but with the pictures it's obvious. Now any time I see one I will be checking to see if...

Those pics of the T are wicked! Looks right at home in front of the station! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Those are gorgeous!!!! Very nice! I can imagine you will thoroughly enjoy using those for many, many years! Jeff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
