Rt 66 second side 4 Traditional Cache

still another Rt 66 guardrail cache with a twist. I enjoy hiding these and I hope you enjoy finding them. Rt 66 has an attraction for many people both old and young. This is a tiny cache that is not hard to find....if you know where to look!! I hope you find all 6 of the Rt 66 caches I have hidden...may be more in the future. there is good place to park and few mugglers but watch out for the cars because it is country they are not looking for pedestrians.

Rt 66 once was the lifeblood of our country. Motels, gas stations, and restaurants dotted the path it carved from Chicago to the Pacific Ocean. Now in many places it is little more than a farm road if it exists at all. There are still lots to see along this route, especially in Mt Olive. Please take your time to see them. Enjoy our town rooted in the culture of Eastern European miners and German farmers. Mother Jones, the famous union advocate is buried here. I have lived across Rt 66 all my life. I have seen it go from busy highway to almost  forgotten road. Nostalgia of the old days + interest of the young keep the memories alive. If you are older, keep the memories alive by telling of your experiences. If you are younger, listen to the  fascinating  tales Rt 66 hold for many of us.
