We drove over 400 miles from Tulsa, OK to St. Louis, MO, via a little corner of Kansas. We stopped at some great Route 66 treasures, like the Blue Whale of Catoosa, a totem pole park, and the original inspiration for Tow Mater.

This is Day 17 of our 10,000 mile road trip across the US.

We quit our jobs, left New York City, bought a car, and decided to spend the summer driving around the US. The plan is to hit at least 35 states and cover more than 10,000 miles. Watch from the beginning here:    • 10,000 MILE ROAD TRIP Starts NOW

Our Gear:

Canon G7X Mark II: http://amzn.to/2nDh9UH (it’s amazing and basically sees in the dark)
Canon G7X: http://amzn.to/2mMmPrd (the original is almost as good, but less expensive)
Joby Gorillapod: http://amzn.to/2n6m92y (fantastic versatile bendy tripod – this is the slightly smaller “action” version that’s easier to travel with and comes with a mount for a camera and a gopro)
Macbook Air: http://amzn.to/2n6rPtc (we edit everything on Final Cut Pro on a Macbook Air, which is light and easy to travel with)
External Hard Drive: http://amzn.to/2nD6o4F (the videos are a little too big for the macbook air to handle, so I edit everything off an external hard drive)
