WHY THIS IS A

CLASSIC TRIP

NATE.CAVALIERI,.

AUTHOR

Maybe it goes back to the transient

vagabonds who founded this

country, but there’s a persistent

call, deep in the American psyche,

that compels us to hit the open

road. And no road is quite as

satisfying as the endless two-lane

blacktop of Route 66. The subject

of sing-alongs and fodder for

daydreams, traveling this classic

trail to the Pacific shore is an

essentially American experience.
