Today I had the pleasure of presenting my slide show: Colors of the Past, Photographs Along Route 66, to the Hillcrest/Mission Valley Lions Club in San Diego, California.
It never ceases to amaze me how enthusiastic groups are to hear about Route 66. Many audience members traveled to California on Route 66, or, as children, spent vacations on Route 66.
Kudos to the Hillcrest/Mission Valley Lions Club for their excellent work assisting the San Diego Center for the Blind with their recent Thanksgiving meal at the center. Route 66 as it travels through Dwight, Illinois. (minutes after sunrise)
This is probably my favorite of all your RT 66 images!

Thanks, Marianne! I sort of chose it at random for today's post, but I'm glad it's one of your favorites.
Like many magical photographic scenes, it disappeared ten minutes after sunrise...
