In Kansas, on Route 66 it is less than 15 miles from the Missouri to Oklahoma state line. When it comes to iconic Route 66, the Sunflower State may be short on miles but as we learned in our conversation with Pamela Mitchell, it is long on smiles.
Mitchell is the chairperson for the tourism board at the Baxter Springs chamber of commerce. So, in our road trip inspiring, smile inducing discussion we talked about history, attractions, detours, time capsule lodging, sports trivia (Mickey Mantle launched his career in Baxter Springs), and of course, venerable old cafes that serve up great pie.
Coming soon, a blog post on the Jim Hinckley's America website will provide more information about the places we talked about today.

Vickie Ashcraft, owner of the Enchanted Trading Post & RV Park in Albuquerque and president of the Route 66 Association of New Mexico, shares the magic of Route 66 in the Land of Enchantment on today's episode of Coffee With Jim. It's a smile inducing, road trip inspiring conversation about her historic 1940s trading post, the Route 66 centennial, ancient villages, green chili burgers, great restaurants, repurposing roadside landmarks, the Route 66 Association of New Mexico, and Hudson automobiles.
Vickie, thank you for sharing the adventure, and for telling me where to go. It looks like I will be trying a Laguna burger on the next raod trip along Route 66 in New Mexico!
