Today we travel to Springfield, Illinois on an exciting, road trip inspiring, smile inducing adventure with Scoff Dahl, CVB director, as our guide. Submerged ghost towns, Route 66 and plans for celebrating the highways centennial, a restaurant that opened in the 1880s, a restaurant with a direct link to acclaimed folk artist Bob Waldmire, Abraham Lincoln's home, Route 66 landmarks and a neon sign park are just a few of the stops made during the tour of Springfield.
It's another shared adventure from Jim Hinckley's America. Come along for the ride!
And after a brief intermission and a tune from The Road Crew, we wrap up with a look at an often overlooked Springfield treasure. And we provide a behind the scenes look at Coffee With Jim, and give our sponsors that will transform your Route 66 adventure a shout out.
