Central New Mexico.
Did a storm knock that tree onto the road? Or a flash-flood, common in the desert states? Nope. That tree is actually growing right out of the pavement. Actually, this is the abandon Route 66 original road. The new road is a mere 20 yards away. Other than the tree growing out of the pavement, this road is surprisingly driveable.

What happened to the road? Yes, that's right, the yellow striped pavement abruptly changes to just rock and dirt.

This is proof that cameras sometimes do take photos all by themselves. Why is my hat crooked?

The Wigwam Village Motel #6, Holbrook, Arizona.
And you thought this place only existed in movies! This is Motel #6, which seems to imply that there were at least six of these in the country at one time.

The Wigwam Village Motel, Holbrook, Arizona.
Inside a Wigwam Village Motel room. Believe it or not, these Wigwam's accommodate 2 beds, a chair, a bathroom, and a TV stand. Much more spacious than they appear.

Central Arizona.
No trespassing, camping, or overnight parking. This portion of the road is a mix of gravel, pavement, and dirt. It is possible that this portion of Route 66 is now on private property. After Route 66 was decommissioned much of it was sold to ranchers.
