2014-11-15 Cabin Fever Day Trip
We've been too sick to move or want to do anything for 42 hours and we are tired of sitting around. All of a sudden our 330 square foot 5th wheel is closing in on us.
So, after lunch we headed out for a day trip on Route 66 around Tulsa.
Route 66 in Tulsa is home to the largest outdoor drive-in movie theatre in Oklahoma. This place can hold 1,000 cars!
There are lots of old motels along this stretch of the road. Some even have murals on the side of them.
Great restoration of an old gas station
This old Meadow Gold sign stood down the street for 70 years. They took it down and restored it and then gave it a new home.
It is STILL cold outside but we are smiling our way along the Route.
Boston Street Church is so cool looking.
Heading away from downtown we found this sign.
What a wonderful looking statue that reminds us of the transition that there was between horse drawn wagons and automobiles.
Nice sign Goodwill Retail Store
Just outside of town they are trying to create a new Route 66 park called Route 66 Village. The train is a Frisco 4500 Steam Engine.
Coincidentally we were watching TV last night and they had a story on this sign. Well, we had seen one at the EAST end of town and this one was just installed on the WEST end of town.
And yes it is STILL cold outside. We keep reminding ourselves that "this too shall pass."
