We just had our continental at our Hotel.  There goes our diet again.  This Best Western has an interesting history tied to route 66, that is so typical of the highway.  The route was really a livelihood for so many american families.  Even though the family located thier business about 5 miles south of the route to the interstate when it came through, this is still a route 66 business.  Best Westerns are usually locally owned franchises, and many are interesting with rich local history.

Suyen just went in to get some beef jerky for "rent" for using rhe facilities. She came out with the whole menu, I think. I've even heard a comparison to Oklahoma Joes in Kansas City.... now that's saying something. There goes our diet..... again.

We are here to use the restroom after taking the worlds most infuriating abd uneccesary detour. The sign said rt66 closed 8 miles ahead, do we followed tge detour signs. 10 miles out of our way later and past a casino I decided to tur. Around. The turnpike was hopeless as there was no sign of another exit. So we detoured 2.5 miles north and I don't know how mant miles west but it was no good as we still found ourselves 3 miles on the wrong side of tge construction which turned out to be work on a rail road bridge. However, we saw a lot of local traffic taking a detour. We followed rhem, and wala, in less than three miles we had our detour.
