Today's program is a road trip inspiring conversation with Roy Pickerell, owner of the quirky and delightful Pink Elephant Antique Mall along Route 66 in Livingston, Illinois, and author Jim Hinckley of Jim Hinckley's America. Housed in a repurposed school built in 1926, this roadside gem has it all - great burgers and ice cream, antique toys, a candy store with old fashioned favorites such as Stuckey's pecan logs, one of a kind photo opps, and delicious fresh fudge.
More road trip inspiration is provided with a conversation about regional restaurant chains of the past, upcoming events along Route 66, and recommendations for lodging, dining and travel planning. Join us for another shared adventure in Jim Hinckley's America.
Today's program is sponsored in part by RouteTrip USA, the bespoke road trip holiday specialists. It is also sponsored by Roadrunner Lodge Motel in Tucumcari, New Mexico, the iconic Wagon Wheel Motel in Cuba, Missouri and Route 66 Navigation, the ultimate turn by turn navigation and travel planning guide for historic Route 66.
