Route 66 2013: OKC, OK to St. Louis, MO

Fast Freddies Discount Tire has our tire patched quickly on a bitter cold morning. Skies are clear, the sun is up, and “OK-City looks oh so pretty.” We make a quick stop at the Federal Building Memorial before boarding the car, cranking the heat, and shoving off northeast. We have decided to race the snowstorm across the Show-Me-State so we have to make St. Louis tonight. This is very easy on the interstate, but it will be tough to see the old road. Despite this, we still manage the Blue Whale, Sidewalk Highway, the Coleman Theater, and that little itty bitty corner of Kansas. Dinner in a must-stop biker bar in Devils Elbow, MO (bypassed 1932) for oh so sweet pulled pork and a few cold and frosties. Descending out of the Ozarks after dark, St. Louis is lit up in front of us and the snowstorm worries are a thing of the past. Tomorrow we cross the mighty Miss-ippi, it’s 2 days now to Chi-town.
