A bit of audio difficulties with the first few minutes. But I hope this doesn't deter you from some road trip inspiring conversation. You might just skip ahead five minutes, sip your coffee, and emjoy the adventure as our destination is Springfield, Illinois!
This morning we visit with Scott Dahl, Director of the Springfield Convention & Visitors Bureau and talk Route 66, the Route 66 centennial, Abraham Lincoln, fine dining (and a corn dog on a stick), the 2024 Route 66 Mother Road Festival and why Springfield is the heart of the land of Lincoln, a destination, and opportunity made manifest.
Come along for the ride.
