In western Arizona there is an almost magical highway. The past, the present, and even the future blend seamlessly. Scenic attractions, historic sites, ghost towns, and unique dinining and lodging options ensure that this is a memorable road trip.
But there is more. Much more. This highway is a portal to some of the most amazing places on earth - the land of the Havasupai with towering waterfalls and turquoise blue lagoons, the pine forested desert oasis of Hualapai Mountain Park, and an array of other gems.
This magical highway is iconic Route 66. And this is 160 miles of smiles.
Today's program is sponsored in part by Tucumcari, New Mexico. More than just a stop on the way to, this is a destination. This is the gateway to adventure.

Fort William Historic Park in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Colonial Williamsburg and historic Jamestown. Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. These and other living time capsule destinations enhance a road trip adventure. And these and other historic parks dispel the myth that history is dead and dry.
Join America's storyteller for an adventure to places that blur the line between past and present, and even the future, and a bit of road trip inspiration. Disneyland may put a smile on your face but can you enjoy bubble and squeak for dinner? Can your children receive military conscription papers written on parchment with a quill pen? Can you take a trip through town along a shade dappled lane in a 1920 Ford?

Alberta Ellis. Victor Green. They lived in an era of prejudices. Opportunity was resricted. And yet they propspered, they were successful and they provided a valuable service. They transformed their corner of the world. They are inspirational people. They were independent thinkers.
