MAY 16
Discover Oklahoma features Tulsa's Route 66 Neon Sign Park. A segment of this series was done on this new park on Southwest Boulevard (Route 66) near West 17th Street in Southwest Tulsa.
The park features three marge motel signs from the Will Rogers Motor Court on Tulsa's east side, the Oil Capital Motel on the city's west side and the Tulsa Auto Court on Admiral Place.
As I have said many times before, you can never have too much neon in your life.

Stuckey's heiress aims to revive her family's brand..
Stephanie Stuckey, the granddaughter of the company's founder, W.S. "Sylvester" Stuckey, has some mighty high ambitions. Her grandfather started the business in 1937 and the chain eventually grew to 350 stores, including many on Route 66.
But, the years have been rough on the chain and it declined at one time to just 75 stores, but now it is up to 115.
