JUNE 13, 2014 ( As in Friday the 13th)
After those Monster Tacos for lunch in Sullivan, back on Route 66 to I-44. Sorry to see the Red Mill still closed (a place we've never gotten a chance to eat at). Got on I-44 when we ran out of 66 and took it to I-270 which we followed to Edwardsville, Illinois.
You don't want to take I-270 during rush hour, which we did. Just when you think you're out of the jam, there pops up another. Crossed into Illinois and then encountered stoplight after stoplight going into Edwardsville on Route 66.
Signed up for the Illinois Route 66 Motor Tour at the Edwardsville Route 66 Festival, enjoyed a band and fought off gnats under a tent while talking with some 66ers from St. Louis. Also got to go to the old Stagger In Again. We've been wanting to go there for a long time.. Listened to a duo play there. Definitely a place we'll visit again.
