OK, this one is just for fun. It's a big smiley water tower welcoming travelers headed east through Atlanta. In 2003 the water tower was repainted and updated with a canary yellow smiley face. It was painted like this to help Atlanta celebrate its 150th birthday.

About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more

Did You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
