Jerrey, It was great meeting you today. You are a special person bringing the world to see Route66. We have great memories. I hope the changes for the next edition go well (including the Santa Fe Loop)! I have a few ideas I would like to share. Please email back and we can talk about art !

It is amazing when you get to meet the guy who wrote your guide book! And what a guide EZ66 is, we didn't get lost, not once. Thanks Jerry for that, I do not know how would we get to LA, especially after Oklahoma, without your instructions. I feel as if you did the journey with us :)

Our first trip on Route 66 was amazing! My wife and I are from Québec City, Canada and drove all the way to Santa Monica. 5,000 km! For those who want to undertake this journey, the EZ66 guide is a must, especially if you want to take the dirt road options :)
Thank you Jerry for these wonderful memories! Next time, we will do the Santa Fe loop.
p.s. Your friend on the pier says Hi!

Love your book and wonderful, detailed directions and maps! So excited to follow. Just an update: National Trails Highway is mostly closed from Fenner, California to Ludlow as we try to follow it west on September 12, 2014. Continuing to get our kicks!

We live in Tulsa and have done 3 trips on the Route so far, a large part of St Louis to Needles CA. Your EZ66 guide, which we fortunately discovered at the Midpoint Cafe on our first trip (during which we got married also) is truly amazing, and I threw out my printed maps when I saw it. Absolutely indispensable for any trip on the route.

We travelled Route 66 with our youngest son Alex in July/August this year from Chicago through to Santa Monica using EZ66. What a great trip across America that was made easier with the EZ66 guide albeit that we occasionally managed to get lost, drive for periods on gravel and thankfully spent long periods on the Mother Road!! In particular, thanks go to all those dedicated people that keep Route 66 alive for the pleasure of travellers such as ourselves from the UK.
We'd strongly recommend the EZ66 guide a must for any prospective Route 66 travellers.
Best regards,

Hi Jerry!
My son and I traveled Route 66 in July of last year. We drove from Chicago to LA over 16 days in our grey Mazda MX-5. The ENTIRE trip was driving top-down of course! What an incredible road trip made even more enjoyable by having your guide to show us all the great spots along the way. Thank you for your dedication to preserving Route 66 and helping folks like us enjoy it!
As you may remember, we were documenting the trip via our GoPro camera. We recently finished the hours and hours of editing. Please enjoy this short video of our trip:

And, if you feel the need, please share the video with others.
Cheers,

Hi jerry
We are traveling east on Route 66 & your book has been so helpful! We just wanted to let you know that there is a great Indian (actually punjabi) buffet in Dhillon truck stop just outside on San Jon NM - not much else there as you wrote. this place was great & supposedly Indian truck drivers prefer to go on Route 66 and so this is part of the ever evolving culture of the road. Thanks for your guidance - it has made our trip so much better!

Jerry, I am planning to take a trip on Route 66 in Mar-Apr next year. I have three books on the route but not much is mentioned about RV traveling. I have a 29 foot Class C motor home and I will need places to spend the night. Are there any RV camping places on the route? Your help will be appricated. Thanks!! "Bill"

Hey Jerry,
My wife bought your book for our up coming trip down Route 66, boy it sure came in handy. We made it only down to the halfway point in Texas, but I am looking forward to finishing the trip hopefully next year. We just got back on Saturday July 26th we went through Chandler on Wednesday hoping to see you but you were gone when we get there (nice Chevy you had parked in your side drive). As we were driving down Route 66 just east of Amarillo we noticed a Peace Park (or a "giant" peace sign) on the side of the road. We were wondering why there isn't a note in your book about it? I know that it isn't part of the old mother road but it might be worth a mention in one of your revised books. Maybe with your connections on Route 66 you can find out more about it, because there doesn't seem to be much information on the internet about it. Thank You, Roger
