Vicky's Salon was occupying this old gas station when we went by in 2016

In the background is St. Joseph's Catholic Church which was established in 1891 and this is their second church, constructed in 1905. This building is just down the street from the original Dairy Queen.

x 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
xDid 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.
