Welcome to a special episode of Missouri Life TV featuring the mother road, Route 66! In part 1 of this 2part episode, we’ll revel in the beauty of the Mighty Mississippi river during a stroll across the Chain of Rocks Bridge. Taste a St. Louis staple at Ted Drewes Frozen Custard. Witness art that is larger than life in Cuba, Missouri or “Mural City”, as it’s sometimes called. Wander through Bob’s Gasoline Alley, adorned with relics from the glory days of the Old Road. Snack on a variety of soda flavors and popcorn at Fanning Outpost. Stop by the quaint Wagon Wheel Motel and it’s beautiful neon sign. And see more of the rich beauty along America’s Main Street as we travel South through Pulaski County across the Devil's Elbow Bridge, making a stop at the Stagecoach Stop museum to reminisce on the many decades of history it honors.
