I'm sure they were glanced at, and maybe even read.

Until recently, I worked at the Federal Aviation Administration in Oklahoma City. Every spring I'd get a bundle of Tour Guides and take them there and put them in the break areas. They always disappeared. But many of my coworkers knew little or nothing about it.

I thought the 2004 Festival was one of the very best ones, especially for being held in a large city. I didn't know about the building being lit with "66" but that's a neat image!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11424537001237485205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6729166837877316238.post-5011318244081944582013-08-26T21:27:19.733-05:002013-08-26T21:27:19.733-05:00Laurel, go ahead and pat yourself on the back.

It's people like you who will help to keep the mystique alive for further generations. Would you believe that all too frequetly I have folks come in to Afton Station and ask what "this Route 66thing" is all about, even as they are standing on it!

You absolutely should be proud of all the hard work you and other Roadies have done to promote and preserve Route 66. The interest is only growing, and I love to hear someone say, "You can't still drive on that, can you?" Then it's off to the races, as I say, "You most certainly can!" and tell them a bit about it. Word of mouth is great promotion, and you and your group have done a lot to get the word out. Great job!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149068921334726430noreply@blogger.com
