In this, the first in a series of programs profiling Route 66 communities, we shine the spotlight on Carlinville, Illinois. From its time capsule square dominated by the 1870s Loomis House to the 1860s Macoupin county corthouse, a towerinig monument to political corruption, this fascinating old town has a multitude of secrets to share.
Join author Jim Hinckley as he shares the story of a Route 66 community suspended in time. In this series he reads from his latest book, Here We Are ... On Route 66, a series of short stories about fascinating Route 66 communities where the line between past and present is blurred.
Today's program is sponsored in part by the Uranus Fudge Company & General Store, where juvenile humor reigns supreme and the worl's best fudge is jmust one of the surprises.
