Route 66 Postcards Reveal Hidden Americana

Willie Lambert, a Route 66 historian with over 1,500 vintage postcards, takes us on a nostalgic road trip through Americana—showing how landmarks like Tucumcari Mountain marked milestones, how a 1976 Bicentennial Wagon Train in Pecos blended old and new travel, and how San Miguel Church, the oldest in the U.S., stood near the original highway route. He even found a 1951 Avalon Cafe in Gallup still thriving today as Avalon Restaurant—proof that Route 66’s spirit lives on. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
