Route 66 Kansas: Big A - the handsome Texaco Muffler Man stands 22 feet tall at Gearhead Curios in Galena. Meticulously restored by the American Giants Museum. Less than 200 Muffler Men remain in the U.S. and I want to see them all!

Sunday lunch somewhere with no crowds, no reservations and no publicly available ingredient list.

The secret sauce is classified.

The “World's Largest Buffalo" refers to a large, 26-foot-tall, 60 ton concrete buffalo statue located in Jamestown, North Dakota, at the Frontier Village and near the North American Bison Discovery Center. (Notice the kids on the right for size reference). #roadtrip #findjoy #roadsideamericana
Large bison / buffalo standing on a concrete pad with a sign noting it is the World’s Largest Buffalo. Also two kids playing nearby that barely reach the buffalo’s lower leg.

#Stunday Combining my love of sunrises with my quest to see all of the remaining Muffler Men. This guy stands in a bed of flowers in front of Greeley Garage and Auto Repair in Colorado. On my way to Rocky Mountain NP.

Leaning hard. Just baking out there on Highway 395. Pretty sure this is the old abandoned motel sign right in Olancha. And somebody actually spray-painted "OPEN" on that bottom board. Yeah, definitely not open. #Highway395 #Olancha #AbandonedPlaces #RoadsideAmericana

Guys, I made it to the center of the town of Enosburg!

Found this off a muddy backroad! I dig odd, kitschy monuments like this. Back then, it was earnest & civic minded (& practical); now it’s offbeat & charmingly self-important.

Route 66 Kansas: The Rainbow Bridge. The only Marsh Arch concrete bridge left on Route 66. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
#route66 #Kansas #getyourkicks #roadtrip #findjoy #rainbowbridge #roadsideamericana
(more info in Alt Text).
A white, arched concrete bridge spans across lush greenery under a partly cloudy sky, conveying a serene and peaceful rural landscape. The unique and graceful Rainbow Arch design was the brainchild of James Barney Marsh, a bridge designer from Iowa, who patented the concrete and steel truss design in 1912. Marsh spent the next two decades erecting approximately 70 of his Rainbow Arch bridges throughout the Midwest. Built in 1923, this 130-foot bridge carried Route 66 motorists over Brush Creek until it was bypassed by the interstate in the 1960s. The bridge consists of a pair of arches disposed between two abutments, with concrete banister railings aligned parallel with the bridge deck. The original patents called for slideable wear plates, molded into the concrete where the bridge deck came into contact with the beams and abutments. This is important, as one of the main benefits of this design was to allow for the expansion and contraction of the reinforced concrete bridge under varying conditions of temperature and moisture. The Brush Creek Bridge was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. In 1992, upon seeing two other Marsh Arch bridges on the short stretch of Route 66 through Kansas dismantled, the Kansas Historic Route 66 Association worked successfully to save the Brush Creek Bridge.

Route 66 Illinois: Legends Neon Park at the IL State Fairgrounds. Walk the path thru signs for the Lincoln Motel, Coliseum Ballroom, Chain of Rocks Motel, Bel-Air Drive-In theater & a giant neon Route 66 shield & more! #route66 #Illinois #roadtrip #USA #artyear #MotherRoad #photography#findjoy #neon
Some recreations and some restorations all from Springfield’s Ace Sign Company. Each is mounted on a pole, 100 feet above the ground to keep them safe from vandalism. There’s also a large metal sculpture that pays homage to the Muffler Men and a walking path with info on many of the Illinois Route 66 towns. #Springfield #Illinois #getyourkicks #roadsideamericana

Route 66 Illinois: Pink Elephant Antique Mall. Since 2005. It’s 30,000 sq feet of all my favorite passions in one place! Roadside Americana, Rte66, Muffler Men, Uniroyal Gals, Antiques, 50s Diners & Ice Cream. #route66 #Illinois #roadtrip #USA #artyear #MotherRoad #photography #pinkelephant #findjoy
A bright pink fiberglass elephant, standing 16 feet tall and 20 feet long, stands in the grass with a shipping container behind him that says “Antique Mall.” These elephants were made as advertisement pieces by the Sparta company of Wisconsin in the 1970s. #pinkelephant #sparta #antiquemall #Livingston #Illinois #getyourkicks #roadsideamericana An original Twister Treat building from the 80s. Shaped like a giant ice cream cone, standing 25 ft tall. Built from 19 separate fiberglass pieces. Includes a walk-up window. Cone is the base of the round building, ice cream is the roof. Next to this is a Uniroyal Gal dressed as a diner waitress in front of a pink and white striped building with signs for the diner and antique mall #twisteetreat #icecream #mufflermen #uniroyalgal#diners #antiques
