Route 66 Icon

Living in Oklahoma, we aren't far from Route 66. In fact, one of the newest icons along Route 66 opened last year. It's a gas station, restaurant, convenience store and all around neat place to visit in a nice, ultra modern package called Pops.

I took Jolie and Aunt Betty to visit over the weekend. In fact, we made 2 trips. The big feature is the 66 foot soda bottle that is cool in the daytime but lights up at night. Also at Pops, they have just about any kind of bottle soft drink you can think of. They boast they have nearly 500 different varieties. Looking for 5 flavors of Jolt Cola? Well, Pops has them all.

It was a pretty neat trip. I recommend it to anyone in the area. For the Route 66 enthusiasts out there, it's just west of the Round Barn in Arcadia.

I'll add some pictures from the visit tonight.
