I had read that the Route 66 Museum in Clinton, Oklahoma was one of the very best, and so prior to hitting the road again I stopped in to take a look. Very happy that I did so.

The Route 66 Museum in Clinton is thoughtfully-and-well organized according to decades. Each decade of Route 66 has a separate room devoted to its life-and-times. It was an interesting mix of objects, photos, music, stories and more. Several photos that I took at the Route 66 Museum may be found below and elsewhere in this blog.

It was close to noon before I managed to get back on the road. Eager to get home after three weeks on the road and noting Winter Storm Warnings have gone up in Oklahoma and Missouri, I decided to stick to the highway today and tomorrow.
