As we drove home from Texas last June along Highway 40, we spent our second night on the road in Santa Rosa, New Mexico. One reason for stopping here was that the Big Guy wanted to check out the Route 66 Auto Museum. The museum is relatively small, basically filling one large room, but packed full of classic cars and assorted car-related memorabilia, from decals and road signs to antique toys to custom hotrods. While I thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the classic cars, it was actually the smaller pieces of the collection and other details that drew my more serious interest.
