EPITAPH

Traveling route 66 will never be the same for me. The memories I have of traveling the old road with Cheryl will last me a lifetime. Along the way we met so many wonderful people. Many have expressed their desire that I return to the 66 fold. That may be possible one day.

Many of the icons are gone now. But many live on, as do great sections of that wonderful old highway. Most of the preceding photos were taken by my loving wife and come from our hundreds of route 66 photos. Copies of the old post cards are from Cheryl’s collection A few photos were taken by me and luckily Cheryl was in quite a few.

The stories were written as we lived them, over a period of twelve years or so. Cheryl loved our adventures and cherished every moment. Hopefully this tribute will keep her memory alive. I can only dream.
