This is what happened to Route 66 here in the states. So many towns were bypassed by the new highways that many towns died. Fortunately, Route 66 is so popular many of the towns have reasons for people to come visit. It is one of the reasons we travel on roads that are not the main highways once we get to an area we have not explored.

Because of this, we try hard to tell the stories of these places with our posts. It's important to keep that history alive.

Thanks so much for stopping by! We appreciate it so much.
