    It's a shame you guys missed the Pontiac museum. It really is quite nice. I'd recommend anyone going through Bloomington also stop at the route 66 museum downtown. It is new and very well done. Having lived on route 66 my entire life it still makes me smile that people come from around the world to enjoy it!

    I am soooo loving the 👎 bandit...at the beginning of all of these vlogs.....Just too funny and crazy at the same time🤣 I am so just in awe of the history.....I LOVE the history😍 Just start singing every morning....California here we come🎶 911 makes me remember, but "the pipes" bring me to tears every time😢 I am sure you will find many things you would love to have along the way.....HELLO NEW HOUSE🤣 Awesome carving in IL...with the bronzes... of Lincoln. Cozy Dog Will & Dawn💑 Thanks for the adventure🐾🦊🐺

    Thank you so much for creating family-friendly videos. My dad wanted to travel Route 66 as a family… he passed away in December. Such a blessing to be able to follow along with you guys. Also, my younger son said to go into your iPhone settings: camera: composition: and uncheck “mirror front camera.” this will remove the flipped image on your rear-facing camera. He noticed the backward words on your shirts.

    My dad is buried in Oak Ridge. I worked at Cozy Dog when I was a teen. The building used to be where the Walgreens was at on the corner and used to have a Dairy Queen connected. My grandpa, Bud, had some pinball machines in there back in the day.

    Im so glad you got to get a Cozy Dog!!! My stomping grounds!! If you were a bit earlier you could went to State Fair on 66! Be sure to check Old Brick alignment in Auburn (South Spi), Litchfield Ariston Restaurant, Drive-in, 66 Museum. Of course go to Chain of Rocks Bridge before STL and see 66 setup and walk over the Mississippi!!!

    This proud Illinoisan had no idea there were so many museums on the way to St. Louis on 66. Then again, I always thought Route 66 in Illinois was Adams to I-55! You all are doing this tour the right way, did you map it yourself or use a 66 guide? There have to be a lot of possible routes

    Will, I really liked your patriotic words at the ceremony. One quick camera tip: with selfie talk-to-the-camera shots do you have that setting that "flips it" so we're not getting the mirror image? All the writing is in reverse. Makes my dyslexia act up.
