Roadside Attractions in Washington
What a great road, Highway 99 and now, like another great road US 66, they have been decommissioned. A couple of years ago a good friend and I went from Illinois to California on the “Mother Road”, as Route 66 is called.
Well U. S. 99 is another great road. Before Interstate travel, the trip from Canada to Mexico and Tijuana and Ensenada was done by travelling through some great scenery. There was all of the wonderful road side art in the form of innovative buildings, like the Hat and Boots gas station on East Marginal Way near Boeing. The infamous Beth’s Café and the home of the 10 egg omelet. These are just some of the pictures that I have posted that I found on the internet. There is also a picture of the Tahitian Village Apartments in Reseda, California where I lived in 1965. It was close enough to the great Pacific Highway for it to count.
