On this episode I chatted with David about the wonderful celebration of Route 66.

The story of the American West is, at its heart, a story about movement. Folks moving across a wide, wild stretch of land—different people, cultures, and communities all heading west for their own reasons. Over time, the push westward became less about wandering and more about building—building ways to get people and goods from here to there. And at the center of all that movement? The roads, rivers, rails, and trails that carved their way through this rugged land.

We tell that story in our new exhibition: Route 66: From Trails to Truck Stops.
