I've long been fascinated by the idea of driving parts (or all) of the mother road. Doesn't look like this has been discussed extensively on this forum. Any input as to what the highlights of such a trip are? Cant't misses, but also "avoid".
Typically, travel reports about Route 66 will talk about the stretch from Oklahoma to the West Coast - is there any value in seeing the part from Chicago to Oklahoma? I suspect that there is, but info is somewhat sparse.
I would likely fly to the starting point and do a point to point car renal, and then fly back home. I have no preference as far as going East to West or the other way around, but I'm looking to make the trip in May, so open to suggestion there too if it makes a difference (avoid snow, etc)
Any ideas and suggestions welcomed. I have about 2 weeks (give or take), and DW and I tend to travel fairly low key/low budget.
