Absolutely love all those old cars. One of the reasons I'm convinced I was born on the wrong side of the pond is because of the love and nostalgia I have for vintage america, from the cars to travel, roadside motels and the lifestyle, american homes, interiors and even appliances. Thank you for doing this little slice of history and sharing your journey along the way, I really am envious.
I grew up in the 60’s but never got to experience this, so I’m living vicariously through your journey while the song “See the USA in your Chevrolet” plays in my head. Lovely.
Beautifully shot and a great nod to the history of the area. The Missouri Board of Tourism should be sending you a check. One place to check just outside of Cuba is Fanning's Outpost, which is on Old 66. It has what used to be the largest ticking chair in the world as well as a great selection of craft sodas and funky flavors of popcorn.
I love this series! I live in Michigan and am now 64 years old! I remember when traveling the back road was a interesting way to get around! The highways like 75 in Michigan are for getting around in a hurry but when your looking to slow down and enjoy a close look at our great lake state the back roads are the way to go!!!! It's all pure Michigan!!!!!
I went there when I was 13 or so. I distinctly remember how awesome the cave felt given the temp was above 100 in the beginning of July. Being the child of two parents working for Big 3, we always had to vacation during shut down. Just about everywhere is blazing hot in July. It is a cool place to visit. Need to get my kids there.
I might be dating myself by saying I remember barn roofs painted with Mail Pouch and Meramec Caverns ads; part of my childhood road trips and summer vacations with my family, I suppose, that I've never forgotten.
Pretty wild that they are telling people What they can and can't paint on their barn roofs honestly. I'd rather see painted barn roofs than billboards that we have everywhere. I mean at least with a barn roof you're using something that's going to be there anyway.
Seeing these gas pumps brings back memories and the overall places and pictures are amazing. The fate of the six men that were on the Bluebonnet train was truly sad. Thank you for sharing.
Hello from ST CLAIR. PA., on Rt 61. An Interesting show. I love stories of Rt. 66. I traveled some of it when I was 19. I visited Meramec Caverns at that time. I've been following you for several years, thank you, I have learned so much.
Some young explorers came to US and they were absolutely amazed at how big some of our vehicles are.Theirs are all small because of very narrow streets.A young man was fascinated with a Lincoln Town Car,he was from Portugal,and really liked our snow ,and how cold it was wonderful seeing what we take for granted through other people's eyes,also something as simple as a recliner chair.🤗👍🇺🇸
I know what you mean about old cars, there’s just something about them. I have a 2011 Mustang which is old now too but I’d love to have one from the sixties. The style is just beautiful.
I'm really enjoying the Route 66 videos. We live in Springfield, IL, and lived for a number of years in Joplin, MO. JD, when you get to Joplin, you'll need to cover the place where Bonnie and Clyde's gang had one of their shootouts with the police.
The Mermac Caverns were awesome to see. I’m a trucker and have been by there but never able to stop. The Wagon Wheel stay was very unique for what it was for. Those Gas pumps though were all leaded pumps. They didn’t have unleaded back then. I’m 59 and def filled my 67 Mustang with Regular gas which contained lead.
Looks like I missed a good car show. The wife and I both worked at Meramec Caverns as our first job, but not at the same time. I actually got meet Lester Dill back in 1972. Great job here Mr. Traveler.
I live in Texas County here in Missouri. Not along Rt 66, but we have some murals on some of our buildings. I follow another guy on Facebook, and he and his buddy did the whole Route 66 tour, but from California to Illinois. I love how you went more into depth on more of the history of the cave system. Passed by several times, never had the chance to go, unfortunately 😢. All I ever knew was Jesse James' hideout, never the other history, so thank you for that.
You should take a look at the roadrunner Lodge in Tucumcari New Mexico. It’s pretty amazing. We just got back from that trip. We did the route 66 thing and for my family this place was our favorite.
I have absolutely loved the last 2 episodes. I used to show my dogs in Gray Summit at Purina Farms, a beautiful place. Many of the contestants and dogs stayed at Budget Lodging now the Pinemark. What a great place to stay. They treated us like family and accommodated us and our dogs with good humor and grace. I am also really liking your trip on route 66. If I were younger and didn't have so many dogs I would do it, too.
I am really enjoying this series! I hope you do a overview video IN ONE VIDEO so I can show my wife and talk her into doing the exact SAME experience you are doing. She has nixed this idea several times so maybe talk her into watching at least one video to get her excited about this. Keep up the great videos! Robert
i'm enjoying the Route 66 episodes, I grew up in the STL area, and kudos to your research, I always learn something new from each of your episodes, thank you for sharing the knowledge!
Thank you so much for this! The last time I went to Meramec Caverns I made it to the wine room before I had a panic attack and had to be escorted out. It was great to be able to take a tour from my own home this time! Great job!
Fantastic JD....!! This is the one of the best history routes in US... Take a peek at the route 6 along northern PA and through New York ... Same era still intact...
I love going to visit caverns all over the country, especially when they have an interesting history behind them. I've never been to this one. I'll stop in if I'm ever in the area. Thanks for the video 👍 Edit: The train mural in Cuba was my favorite part of the video 🇺🇸❤️
I am enjoying this series. 👍 We have a cave in Cumberland County that is known as Salt Peter Cave. The first 100 years of Cumberland County has a story of a mummified confederate soldier that was found in the cave. Rumors started circulating about various things that the confederate was doing from the grave, so they dug him up and reinterred him at an undisclosed location.
Comment # 2, the highlight of your visit was for me the time you spent in Cuba and the Mural of the 6 hero’s who gave their lives after traveling aboard the “Blubonnet” coach to their assignment. I live in S. Tx. and travel through Cuba to go home to Mi. to visit. You can bet your last dollar I’ll be stopping in Cuba Mo. next trip home. BTW , the Blubonnet is the State flower of Tx. 😉, great series thus far, I’m really enjoying it …..
You have gotten my attention ! As a kid living just in the shadow of Route 66 in SW Oklahoma, I never really thought that much about to old mother road, it was just as though it was always there. I remember a tv show as a kid and love that old show. I also enjoy Adam 12 but it was only a few years ago that I made the connection that Martin Milner from Adam 12 was also a start in the old TV show Rt 66. Your videos have inspired me now to try to travel at least a portion of that road. Another interesting thing is as a Kid, I loved the logo of the Phillips 66 oil company that we had in town and never really making the connection to the highway itself. Keep up the great work. Love your videos
It's pretty cool to see our area on your channel. I live 25 minutes north of Cuba. I remember when all the fuel was leaded. Your choice was Regular and Ethel (premium). I'm jealous of your trip. It has been a bucket list item for me.
been watching these, and skimming through them, this route is highly covered by my other vloggers, but i do enjoy the content from your perspective i have not seen. thank you for your continuing efforts.
This is really cool. One question: Has anyone ever got lost exploring the caverns. A few years back, I was in Poland exploring the salt cave, and a few people got lost and joined our group?
We ran into you recording at Lincoln’s tomb in Springfield! Love your work! Seeing the classic cars in this episode made us think that you would love seeing the Gilmore Car Museum in Michigan (Hickory Corners). And there’s a lot of other beauty in our great state of Michigan! Looking forward to the remaining episodes in this series.
My connection, at least to similarities of today's video if you will, is going in another direction away from Route 66. It was when I was a kid, from Kentucky, in the late 50's and mid 60's. The whole family, in a Chevy station wagon, enroute to Cherokee Lake in Tennessee to do some fishing. The advertising on the barns was really big back then, over there as well, with the most common one being, "SEE ROCK CITY." It was our introduction to billboards, of a sort! Really loving your latest venture, JD!!
Dang. And to think this is just the tip of the iceberg of what's on this Route! Somethings you've shown have inspired me to explore areas near me like the BMW plant in Spartanburg.
Let's not forget the mining of lead, which tended to be kinda important for the Confederates during the Civil War. Big lead mine near Bonne Terre in St. Francois (pronounced Saint "Francis" County) which is seen on the map.
Regarding the mural to those who went to war and never came back here in the UK we have a small number of villages where everyone from those villages who fought in World War One came back and theses are known as Thankful Villages and within those villages there a very small number known as Doubly Thankful where everyone from those villages who went to fight in World War Two also returned
similarly, across the south on barns all over was See Rock City, and if you visited Rock City or Ruby Falls, you also got the bumper sign tied on your bumper
When I was a kid in the late ‘50’s and into the ‘60’s we would travel from our home in Michigan to visit relatives in southwest Missouri every summer. We traveled Route 66 until the expressway was completed and took a half day off our travel time. On one trip we toured Meramec Caverns and on another we visited nearby Ontonaga Cave. I went back to MO in 2003 and stopped by Meramec Caverns but decided not no go through the caverns although I went through the gift shop. I didn’t seem as big as when I was a kid.
Bulletin board/wall map...same thing I guess lol - and what car won....? - always love me some good stalactite and stalagmite talk - not sure what happened with Bourbon - the Cuba remembrance wall poignant - very cool recondo - this Route 66 series is great - keep it rolling!
The old hotels in these regions offer a glimpse into the past, serving as living history. My parents and grandparents traveled here in the 40s, 50s, and 60s. Check out your family's old 35mm slides. Bring it on to Oklahoma.
Ive done the same route as your doing now JD except most of the time it was in a semi truck running loads out of STL. I made it a point to run as much of the old road as i could until it becomes obscured by sand in some areas. Growing up in st charles we did trips as a kid with my parents in the summers so i did get to see a lot of what your doing now. we had an old 71 Winnebago back then and used it every time both parents had ended school for the year.
JD you mentioned that you really like county museums… If you get a chance go to the Ray County Museum in Richmond, Missouri… It is fabulous! It has 54 rooms and was once the county poor farm…
Looks identical to mammoth caves headed that way near somerset Ky from my house here in floyd/pike county area eastern Ky…so when you comin down to do Hatfield/mcoy stuff jd..? I work rock throwin distance from dils cemetery where ol Randal rests…used to take dad to walk those steps for excercise …that and a story on our underground miners would be epic…👊🏻🇺🇸matt
There are Jesse James hideouts in my county in Illinois just north of STL, Jersey County, which they often used. Jesse James has a history here. I think he had a sister or sister-in-law living here as well. Or at least some sort of family connection. He also apparently played cards with the sheriff here who didn't recognize him at the time, supposedly, while living here for six months.
When we went to the wine room we was told not too touch the wine table because the oils on your hand can kill it. As soon as we walked in a little kid went running and yelling pass everyone and put both hands on it. The whole group just gasped. Also there is a Meramec cave Barn on Interstate 75 between Piqua and Sidney Ohio.
JD we gotta get you on team Mopar! Nothings more American than the chargers and roadrunners of the 60’s and 70s! Great series thus far thank you

I Love it when you get side tracked thanks for sharing J.D. God Bless you Brother!!✌️🇺🇲
Took a few hundred miles of backroads yesterday. Was extremely relaxing.

I live in Michigan as well. I- 75 is definitely not a scenic route, unless you are crossing the Straits of Mackinac.
I live in Michigan, we are so fortunate to have all the lakes, it is a beautiful state 😊
My family went to Merrimack Caverns around 1960. Beautiful country.
Yes it is.
Greetings, J.D.
Really digging this Route 66 series. Thank you for your effort and sharing this slice of Americana with us.
Safe journeys, my man.
