MCJERRYS GALLERY...autographed stickers on Oct 07, 2026 at 1:36:00 am [Print]

If the gallery happens to be CLOSED when you come thru, you can often get a sticker I autographed, to put in your EZ 66, by visiting Nostalgic Chandler at 12th and Manvel south of downtown Chandler. Look for the Pink Flamingos.

Ribbon Road/Sidewalk Hwy/ 9-Foot Rd, between Miami and Narcissa, OK. Due to an unfortunate repaving, most of this formerly historic section has lost its original Route 66 history/authenticity.

The last mile, shown on the detail map as E 140 Rd, is the only remaining untouched section (for now) worth driving. There is a historical marker at this stretch's junction with US 69/H-66.

SOME NEW STUFF on Sep 10, 2026 at 11:30:05 pm [Print]

Here's some random NEW things on 66 (installed after the 6th edition was printed)

Downtown Lincoln's new Route 66 Museum is open: GIANT PENNY, diorama of Mark Cline building a giant (he looks SO real), RELOCATED GIANT ABE on wagon, ETC

3 new GIANTS in Granite City (you might ask at Obrien Tire while viewing their giant).

Tulsa's GIANT DINO will be erect soon.

Giant pushpin (looks like a tiffany stained glass lamp and lights up at night) just EAST of Wellston, OK.

Giant engineer's COMPASS at the PONY BRIDGE near Bridgeport, OK

GIANT HORSESHOE at the Sayre City Park.

Musical road, east side of Santa Rosa NM

Giant 66 sign drive thru, Holbrook AZ.

There's probably more...(and there are too many decorative signs, markers and murals to list)!

CHAIN OF ROCKS BRIDGE DETOUR INFO on Jun 28, 2026 at 3:25:48 am [Print]

---

From Marian Pavel of Rte 66 Navigation (who just drove this section)

(Due to construction on I-370 at Riverview Dr exit:
"So now, you have to leave I270 on ramp 33 and turn to Dunn Rd and then turn to Riverview Dr on the cross of the streets"

In other words, to get to the MO entrance of the Chain pof Rocks walking bridge, you must cross into MO from IL on I0270, go to exit 33, and follow Dunn Rd (north side of I-270) back east to Riverview Drive.

This is a difficult construction area so be careful.
