This past winter I made a short stop in Springfield, Missouri to see the World’s Largest Fork.

Meeting Up with Santos Chronicles and Small Stuff, Big Family on Route 66
A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to meet with a couple of other vloggers at some famous attractions along Route 66 in St. Louis. This was my first collaboration. Check it out!
Final Visit to Historic Route 66 Gasconade River Bridge
The old Gasconade River Bridge in Missouri was first completed in 1924, two years before Route 66 came into existence. It was closed to traffic a few years ago and some historic preservation groups have attempted to save the old bridge and turn it into a pedestrian bridge. Unfortunately, due to not being able to meet insurance demands, the bridge is scheduled to be demolished during the summer of 2020. This video takes one final look back at the old bridge.
Farewell to Bob’s Gasoline Alley
A few weeks ago I drove Route 66 through parts of Missouri. I stopped and visited a lot of different sites. One of them was Bob’s Gasoline Alley. Bob Mullen passed away earlier this year and this wonderful collection of signage, gas pumps, and pieces of Americana will soon be no more as it’s all being auctioned off in July 2020. Thanks for collecting and sharing, Bob.
