About a year ago I could have given you more than five good reasons to live in America. The political climate has changed since then, and changed so much that I now question what I believed in and loved most of my adult life. Less than a majority of the people like what the current president represents, but that's not the cause of my consternation. The numbers of people who support such a corrupt and amoral leader is very disillusioning. Perhaps next year I'll have some good answers for you, but at the moment I'm not very optimistic.

Odd as it seems, I see all those things as part of the British culture.

It might be disappointing on Route 66. The original highway no longer exists but for some very small stretches somewhere in the wilderness of our country. It's all been replaced by high speed roads and commercial enterprises.

This country has hundreds of interesting museums. Chicago alone has some highly interesting ones, such as the stained glass museum out on Navy Pier. Just about any of our major cities would keep you entertained for weeks, especially Washington D C.

Right here in O'Fallon (near St Louis) there is a restaurant called Ethyl's Smokehouse. It's not an original from Rt66, but it was built about the same time as the famous highway. The original Rt66 came through St Louis and headed southwest. My town is just a little north of that but some of the buildings here are historic.

Good times. ZZ Top is the best. I can't believe they were actually driving that vintage car around to make the video. Usually they are just for show.

Our official motto is, "In God we trust."
He gave us the current president which few people consider a blessing.

Glenn had quite a few popular songs. Wichita Lineman wasn't a big favorite of mine, probably because it sounds too country. This one was about his best in my opinion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETkzK9pXMio
