Route 66 Gila Cliff Dwellings
$0.00One of my favorite road trips is to shadow Route 66 along its way west and back again. Our road trip started in Louisville, Kentucky and picked up Route 66 in St. Louis and ended in southwest New Mexico. Originally, Route 66 ran from Chicago, Illinois through Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona before ending in Los Angeles, California. Route 66 served as a major path for those who migrated west specifically during the dustbowl in the 1930’s. They were looking for agriculture jobs in California. Businesses along the route thrived until the interstate highways came along. Route 66 became the first highway to be completely paved in 1938. When the highway was decommissioned, sections of the road were deposed of in various ways. Route 66 in New Mexico has been made into the National Scenic Byway, being replaced by I-40.

In the Gardens of Paradise: Maui, Hawaii
$0.00Going to Hawaii is about as far off the beaten path as I have been. When we had a chance to go to Maui for two weeks, we were “all in.” We landed in Maui after a 16-hour plane flight. We could have done it in 3 less flying hours for not too much more money, which will happen next time we go. It took a couple of days for our internal clocks to adjust to the time zone difference. Our home base was in a resort area in Lahaina.
