APRIL 25TH, MONDAY
Drove past that ever-impressive Chain of Rocks Bridge on I-270 and on to I-55, getting off at Staunton and actually finding Rich Henry's Rabbit Ranch with no trouble. Rich's was the first regular Route 66 stop we made on our first trip on the road and a big reason we ended up caught in the 66 fever. Thanks a lot Rich.
Then Route 66 to Litchfield and I-55 to Springfield. Checked into the Route 66 Hotel and then drove to a new place, Costelloe's. This is owned by the the former members of Coz's, a famous Springfield restaurant. Then to Curve Inn and to the Filling Station at the Route 6 Hotel where we watched the St. Louis Blues-Chicago Blackhawks playoff game. It was game 7, winner goes on to the next round, loser goes home.
Sadly, we went home.
