I Got My Kicks on Route 66
Without question, the most amazing golf trip of my life (and I have taken well over 100) ended two years ago. I played every golf course on Route 66 in 19 days while driving my restored 1966 Mustang. Oh, and I was in my 66th year!
The quickest way to take this trip with me starts below. You will find it was much more than just a "golf trip." There are two ways to take the journey with me. You can click on this link (http://logoballtraveler.com/1/post/2016/07/route-66-trip-begins-saturday-morning-44-courses-in-19-days.html) and then click on the link at the bottom of each day's wrap-up to quickly move to the next day.
Or you can pick and choose by selecting a specific chapter below.
Enjoy!
