Well, one of the two remaining Beatles, and, even at that, that's a maybe.
A column in yesterday's Chicago Tribune by Mary Schmich, reports that someone looking a lot like Sir Paul, as in McCartney, was seen, or someone who looks a LOT LIKE HIM, at the Route 66 Welcome Center at the Joliet Area Historical Museum this past Saturday.
Supposedly, Paul asked for no pictures, but he was seen on security tape, and it did look like him.
Supposedly, he asked a museum worker if 66 was pronounced "root" or "rout." He bought sever4al maps of the road. Could that mean he's going for a ride? Today, I see several other sources saying Paul is driving Route 66 this month.
Looking forward to more stories, if this is indeed true. Imagine Paul stopping to visit with Ernie Edwards at the Pig Hip, Bill Shea, having a Cozy Dog, or staying at the Munger-Moss and visiting with Ramona and Bob.
Who'd a Thunk, Beatles on the Route. Maybe He'll Write the New Definitive 66 Song.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
