A Great Time At the St. Louis Route 66 Festival

This years St. Louis Route 66 Festival was great. Some great cars and motorcycles in the shows. I ate too much carnival food, funnel cakes, kettle corn and more.

I got another book from Connie Corcoran Wilson, Ghostly Tales of Route 66 From Arkansas to Arizona. Will review in a later post.

The bands were great and of course Kim Massey and her band put on a terrific show.

Here are some pics of the Kim Massey performance:

Hello Everyone!

Hi,

I know it's been awhile since I posted anything. I do apologize for not adding anything new. I went back to Indiana to see my family and have not had a chance to get to a computer.

I got a new camera and I hope to get out and take some pictures of sites along Route 66 here in St. Louis. Be sure and watch for these photos. I would appreciate any comments or constructive criticism on my pictures.

Hope you all are enjoying your summer and remember to watch for and take care around our motorcycle riding Route 66 enthusiasts. Below I've included some great motorcycle related products from Zazzle.

Talk to you later and bless you all...

Julie

Book Review: Ghostly Tales of Route 66


Ghostly Tales of Route 66


Ghostly Tales of Route 66
by Michael McCarty and Connie Corcoran Wilson



In October of 2008, I went to the St. Louis Route 66 Festival. One of the vendors there was Connie Wilson with some of her books. The above title caught my eye and I purchased a copy. Ms. Wilson signed the copy and was a very charming lady.

After starting to read the book, I could not put it down. I read the book in an entire setting. The tales of haunts along Route 66 is very interesting and keeps one's attention. I highly recommend this book if you are interested in haunted and paranormal subjects. In addition to being a great read, Ghostly Tales of Route 66 opens up a broader choice of places to explore while traveling Route 66.

Spring is Near...



With warmer weather coming, you'll start to notice more motorcycles on the road. You'll see more of our biker friends along Route 66.

Keep an eye out and take caution when driving so not to hit someone on a motorcycle. It will not be a moment to remember for either party.

If you're a biker and going to travel along Route 66 this year, there are some great motorcycle shops along the way you may want to check out.

Here in St. Louis, we have a great one, Doc's in Kirkwood. Doc's has been in business for over fifty years and a great member of our business community. They have a great selection of bikes and "biker gear". In addition, you can rent a bike if you so desire!

Doc's is located at the corner of Kirkwood (Lindbergh, US 67) and Big Bend Roads.

Enjoy the road and keep an eye out for our biker friends.

Happy Riding!
