Cool neon in Gallup, NM |

I started to wonder, "Why are my tracks the ONLY tracks?" |

In addition to the light snow there was a thick fog moving through the area. |

Even the National Park commemorates Old Route 66. |

Those old telephone poles are still standing along the original roadway where Route 66 traversed this section of the Arizona desert. |

This morning the fog blankets the "Big Picture." |

I was the only visitor at Stewart's this morning. |

Over my left shoulder, there's a girl in a flat bed Ford, but I believe she's looking at that other fella. |

This park and amphitheater are on the other side of the wall commemorating the Eagle's song. |
