66 a minute ago, and now I don't know where I am!
Anybody know a decent place to get some road food around here? And
maybe a nice mom-and-pop motel where I can get some shut-eye on a
nice clean, comfortable bed?
I know some of you have got to have an idea where I am--it looks like
a good road, with all the features that make us love ol' route 66,
but I'm heading somewhere else. I'm sure you know the road I'm on--a
two lane highway, heading somewhere I may never get to, since there's
so much to see and do along the way. Maybe I'm heading toward your
hometown, or maybe I'm on your favorite road clear across the country.
So, folks, post up and tell me--If you were me, what road would you
be on, where does it go, what will I see along the way? Can I GET
there from here?
Gotta get off the road for a second now--I knew I should have taken a
pit stop BEFORE I started driving--so while I'm off taking care of
business, post up and tell be where to go!

> Greetings from AMERICAN ROAD magazine. To find out more about our
group and our publication, simply post a message here or go to
www.mockturtlepress.com and take a virtual tour of our personal
wonderland. We are about to embark on a great adventure, and hope you
will catch a ride with us. We're going places.
Congratulations Jim and Thomas on the advent of what's going to be
the BEST roadie magazine ever, and congratulations Pat and Jennifer
on setting up a place where we can learn, discuss, and share our
excitement about the roads we travel and the people and things we se
along the way.
Let me start my membership in this group by saying that I'm writing
this email from the Tradewinds Motel, across the street from the
Route 66 Museum in Clinton, OK (just a regular room.... didn't spring
for the "Elvis" room this time... decided to be thrifty for once in
my life! I'm on my way back from the dedication ceremony for the
beautiful granite Will Rogers plaque which has been erected on Route
66 at the OK/TX border. What a magnificent event the ceremony was!
A caravan of 16 cars (both vintage and new, adorned with Route 66
signs and flags)cruised Route 66 from Clinton to Texola, where we
stopped at the Windmill Restaurant to pick up the Texas delegation
and hear welcoming speeches, then proceeded to the monument itself.
The day was clear and beautiful, with gorgeous pink clouds floating
above us, and the crowd was impressive! Besides about 50 (or maybe
even more!) of us Route 66 enthusiasts from OK and TX, we were also
joined by State Senators, Representatives, County Commissioners (all
of whose names I've forgotten -- sorry) and a busload of senior
citizen tourists from California! Jeff Meyer from the Illinois
Association was there as well, and the incredible Harley and
Annabelle Russell ("The Mediocre Music Makers") entertained us
with "Your Land Is My Land", and "Get Your Kicks on Route 66". How
perfect could a day be? I'm so happy to begin my association with
this E-group by being able to report this extraordinary and wonderful
event to you.
(Oh, and by the way, I handed out a whole fistful of AMERICAN ROAD
pamphlets at the ceremony, and left some more at Harley and
Annabelle's store afterwards!)

From a tired old roadie - I'm one of those who go back far enough to
remember the time when there weren't any interstates (barely). Old
enough to remember when there weren't any Mickey D's or BK's or DQ's.
Old enough to remember when Mom & Pop ran the tourist camps, the
garages, the little "home-cooking, all-you-can-eat-for-$1.50"
resturants. And I'm only 65!!!!!!!!!!!! So it wasn't all that long ago!!
It wasn't all sunshine and gravy tho; as C W McCall sings in his
song, "Old 30", "she was 3000 miles of rockin' rollin' highway,
radiators boiling in the summer sun..........". Yeah, traveling in
the late 40's, early 50's could be a real adventure - you just never
knew what was going to be around the next corner.
So we look forward to the stories - and hope there's a few old
timers join in so we can have a look at the fun and adventure of road
traveling years ago.
Keep on trucking.
Hudsonly,
Alex B

And especially you the Roadmaven for putting this group together. The
two-lane highways bring us in touch with the real America in my
opinion. Where else can you stop and fill your tank and mingle with
the great locals of small town America? You can wander into a small
cafe without standing in line or picking a number to order your food.
There's a whole new world of adventure out there around the next bend
in the road if you take the time to slow down and enjoy it.
It was great to meet many of in Springfield, IL last week at the
Route 66 Celebration and I was overjoyed to find out that there's a
new magazine devoted to the other two-lanes coming out. Thanks Thomas
and Becky Repp and Jim Ross for putting this together. You'll be
getting my subscription as soon as I can sweet talk my wife out of
the checkbook :-) We should be closing on our new old house (1917)
next week in Yuma, Colorado so we've been counting our pennies.
Speaking of Yuma, it has a great old two lane - HWY 34 - running
through it too. I had the wonderful experience of getting stuck in a
cattle drive 15 miles from town on my return trip from Springfield
last week. Yes, only on the two-lanes! I love it.
See you down the road,

Guy!
First of all, it was great meeting you in Springfield. Now, do you
realize that your "great two lane", U.S. 34, shares pavement here in
the Chicago area with good ol' 66? Ogden Avenue, which is 66 through
most of Chicago, then all of Cicero and Berwyn, is currently still 34!
At Harlem Avenue, 66 turns south, but 34 continues on Ogden through
several more cities and towns on its way west through Illinois.
So, there's an adventure for you! Follow 34 all the way east to the
beginning of 66, then explore 66 back west! And when you're in MY
neck of the woods, stop in for a visit!

Thanks for all the enthusiasm you have for American Road! Believe me, I am as
eager as anyone to hold it in my hands. Unfortunately, there is a tremendous
amount of work to be done to get the first issue assembled, printed, and
distributed, which is why we announced when we did for an "on-sale" date of next
spring. As for making it available in the D.C. area, Florida, or anywhere else,
this will depend entirely on the distributor. The sure bet is to subscribe and
have it delivered to your door.
Greg, thank you for joining our caravan. For those of you who may not know, Greg
is founder and host the Route 66 egroup, and our rapid growth here is due in no
small part to the good folks who can be counted among his more than 500 members.

As ELP would say: "Welcome back my friends... to the show that NEVER
ends." Good to know that someday soon, we'll all be intersecting on
the great highways of America. The Father and Mother Roads are only
the tip of the iceberg, and the adventures and possibilities are
truely endless along the trails and weaves. Our Two Lane Highways are
concrete evidence that trails once existed, and one lifetime will
never be enough for us to appreciate ALL there is offered as we
traverse behind our fore-fathers. So great to be in such grand
company in the search for the expected and unexpected.
Congratulations in your pursuit to share the road experiences of
those who meandor the narrow roads and two track trails, and for
those whose lives depend daily on their existence. The AMERICAN ROAD
magazine publication is sure to bring the much needed increase in
awareness, appreciation, resurgence, preservation, and excitement to
America's history of travel and exploration along America's trails,
highways, and byways. Looking forward immensly to Volume One, Number
One. Count me there!
And I thought all these years, that my words were falling on deaf
ears. You've made my day! Yes indeed!
Welcome to the club my fellow landrunners! (;D
Give me a shout if ever I can be of any assistance to your cause. In
the meantime,...I'll be seeing ya'll just around the next bend on the
new horizons ahead of us.
God Bless and Happy Trails.

Every year when I was in my early teens, my family would take a month-
long vacation. We would travel from our Northern Indiana home in
large circles, stopping off at state and national parks along the
way. Our rig was a Buick Electra pulling a pop-up tent-trailer. The
destinations were different each year: Florida, Yellowstone, Smokey
Mountains, Rocky Mountains, Maine and New England. Before I get to
the heart of the story about driving on a mountain road full of
switchbacks and hairpin turns on the edge of cliffs--with no brakes--
I need to tell you a bit about my father.
My father was born the year that the Titanic sank. He grew up on a
farm near Joliet, IL and learned to drive in a Model T Ford when he
was 10 years old. He related the story to me once that as a young boy
he had seen the cars for sale in the newspaper. There was an address
in the ad, so my father wrote a letter asking for a catalog of
information. His name was Homer, same as my grandfather (different
middle name, no not technically Homer Jr. and Homer Sr.) Much to his
surprise, a few days after he mailed his letter, a man drove up to
the family home in a shiny, brand-new Model T. The driver walked up
to my grandfather and asked if he was Homer Clark. The elder Homer
nodded, and the man said, "Well, Mr. Clark, here's the new car you
ordered!" In the confused moments after that statement was made, my
father's letter was produced. After my grandfather, not known as a
gentle soul, invited the salesman to get the hell off the premises,
he turned his attention to my dad. In his own way, the old man
imparted to my father the lesson that you don't give your personal
information to an automobile salesman if you're not in the market for
a new car.
So my father learned a painful lesson early on that may partially
explain why he spent so many years dealing only with used cars. He
also learned how to work on them. In the days before computerized
cars, anybody with a little know-how, time to spare and a five dollar
repair manual for your particular model could take care of their own
vehicle. It was not unusual for my dad to buy two cars of the same
type--one to drive, and one to harvest for spare parts.
So, sometime in the late 1960s, we were on a family vacation in our
1960 Buick Electra, towing our trailer, as we headed up a two-lane
mountain road to a campground in the higher elevation. There were 6
of us in the car: My father driving, my sister next to him, and my
Mother on the passenger side in the front seat; I was in the middle
seat in back between my two brothers. My mother noted that my father
was taking a few of the turns at a speed that was a bit excessive.
That's when my dad let us in on a little secret: for the past few
miles, the brakes had been getting less and less effective. He
surmised that we must have been leaking brake fluid. There was no
shoulder to pull over onto, there was no way to turn the car around
on the narrow road and head back to the nearest town. He had no
choice but to press on.
Though the logic of his position was undeniable, the sum of the facts
was still enough to put my mom in a bit of a stir. She said something
like "We've been driving without brakes and you didn't TELL ME?" as
she grabbed the dashboard with both hands and started slamming the
imaginary brake pedal she wished she had on the floor in front of
her. Her imaginary brake was no more effective than my dad's real
one. Our predicament was not all that dangerous, since we were
heading mainly uphill, so dad kept the speed of the rig to a minimum
and let gravity help slow us as needed. He also utilized the parking
brake whenever things got a little dicey.
We made our way up the mountain at a slow pace, causing some traffic
to stack up behind us. More than one reckless soul passed us--clearly
not a good idea on such a winding road. We made it to our campsite
just in time to prevent permanent damage to my mother's psyche. But
as soon as we got the trailer un-hitched from the car, my dad was
crawling under and determined that a cracked hose was the cause of
our trouble. He announced that he was driving back down the mountain
to the nearest town to get a replacement part.
Normally my dad was methodical, not impulsive, but he seemed to sense
that his best move at this point was to just get in the car and go
about the required business. This was going to be a much more
dangerous task that driving uphill had been. He was going to have to
rely much more on low gear and the mechanical parking brake, since
now gravity would be working against him. So, off he went, leaving my
mom to wonder why she hadn't packed any cooking wine.
Though my dad was back in just over an hour, the minutes went by with
the speed of a tree sloth being chased by a one-legged turtle. He had
purchased the hose needed to fix up the brake line, but instead of
fixing it in town, or paying someone to put it on, he drove back up
the mountain, still with no brakes, in order to cut down my mom's
worrying time. Now he slid under the car to do the repair, keeping to
his credo of never paying someone else to do something that he could
do better himself.
I wish I could tell you what state or national park this was, or the
name of that road, but that information has faded from my memory. But
any of us that have traveled in the mountain areas should be able to
picture a road like this one, climbing through the forested
mountainside, snaking in and out the carved-out path, up and up,
passing through the dense forest, emerging from time to time to
breathtaking vistas. What strikes me now is that the vivid memory I
have is not of the destination--one of many campsites in one of many
campgrounds--what I remember are my parents, the car, and, of course,
the road itself. I can still see this road, though nameless in my
childhood ignorance of such things, when I think about that day. I
can feel the car move slowly forward, and see my mother's grip on the
dashboard tighten every time the car slid outward on a hairpin curve
that was a bit sharper than my dad had anticipated. I can hear the
metal-on-metal screech when my dad would mash in the parking brake,
then the heavy clunk as he pulled out the lever to disengage it. This
is my earliest memory of an American Road

I have similar memories, only of my grandfather (mother's dad). We'd take
two vacations a year; Dad would take my mother, my sister and I on a one
week vacation camping, usually to Cave Mountain, VA (by Buena Vista) or to
Keystone State Park, east of Pittsburgh, PA. Then, in August, Grandpa would
take us, Grandma and my mother on a 1-2 week vacation, usually down US Hwy
25 into TN or NC.
We were headed down Skyline Drive out of Front Royal, VA, when HIS brakes
started going bad. Grandpa was of the old school, according to him, Grandma
didn't know a thing about autos. The car started making noises from under
the hood area, Grandma was telling him, "Why didn't you get it checked back
in Front Royal?", they started bickering back and forth! My sister and I
were about having fits in the back seat, giggling at the two of them.
We stopped at a roadside rest to use the facilities and my grandmother
stormed out of the car and started walking down Skyline Drive. I don't know
where she thought she was going, but I can still remember her clomping down
the road in her big brown brogans! It took Grandpa almost an hour to
convince her to get back in the car!
Another memory is of coming down the Uniontown Hill on US Hwy 40 in PA. For
those of you who recall this area, you REALLY gain speed coming down the
hill if you're not particularly careful! It's extremely easy to lose
control of whatever you happen to be driving. That trip was my first
experience in seeing the "runaway lanes" for truckers. Each trip we made
down it usually resulted in seeing one or two wrecks and one or two (or
more) 18 wheelers bogged down to their axles in the runaway lane.
God, I miss the "old roads"! Today, in my job as Resident Damage Appraiser
for Ohio Mutual Insurance Group out of Bucyrus, OH for SE Ohio, I still get
to travel US 40, US 22 and most of the old state highways. We have some
beautiful scenery in SE Ohio and it really brings back memories!

favorite roads that mean so much to us, we can still appreciate and
learn about other roads. I hope we can come together to help preserve
all the great historic highways that criss cross our great country.
I have already promoted the group to the two highway groups that I
moderate (Highway99 and LincolnHighway). I added the link to the
American_Road group on the links page of both groups. I hope that
everyone will spread the word.
