Along 66, June 2018: An Arch and a Motorhead
JUNE 13-- There is a new welcome arch in Kingman, Arizona. I love arches.
JUNE 14-- Route 66 Motorheads bar in Springfield, Illinois, has been offered a sales tax rebate of up to $250,000 for being annexed to Springfield. This is to help offset the cost of a $48,000 waterline to the city.
The new place is at 600 Toronto Road, south of Springfield and used to be a Stuckey's.
The bar opened Friday and they hope to have the restaurant serving food next month. We dropped in for a drink or two on Saturday during the Illinois Route 66 Motor Tour. Definitely a place 66ers will want to see.
The place has an auto racing theme and Route 66 memorabilia, including Bill Shea's entrance to his former museum.
There is also a Bel-Air Motel sign, a Springfield Tops Big Boy sign and Art's Motel sign from Farmersville.
This Is One Really Good Place. --RoadDog
