Nostalgia and Amerikan trash.

Trip to the past.

pure nostalgia

Gas stations from that time.

Almost everyone was here.

Even junk makes good atmosphere.

Glorification of a myth.

Between souvenir shops, saloons and fast food.

General Store Hackberry
with thousands of business cards, banknotes, lisence plates and photos.

There are always groups of motorcyclists.
If you travel the tar road between highway and railroad, mostly straight and boring, it's astonshing, that so many motorcyclists can still be seducded from the Route 66 myth.
