Santa Rosa, New Mexico - (SUNDAY 11.27.22) a stop of the famous 1959 “Historic Route 66” “Blue Moon Cafe” for eats … after a walking in I discover within 1 minute that the “Silver Moon” was actually a tourist “store” with a place to eat - disappointing 😣 … #RunAwayBill #rabDUSA2022 #DUSA2022 #rabRoute66 #rab66Route66_2022 #Route66RunAwayBill #Route66 #HistoricRoute66 #rabEatsOfRoute66 #rabWestwardHo2022 #rabRoute66NewMexico #rabNewMexico #NewMexico Sunday 11.27.22 (at Silver Moon) https://www.instagram.com/p/Clo4pxIu94P/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Amarillo, Texas - I visited the 1946 “Golden Light Café” to see how it faired in the “oldest bars of Amarillo” competition … the “Golden Light” is the oldest restaurant, but the “Cantina” section was added until 1997 so not even a competitor … the “Golden Light Café” is a “Run-A-Way Bill” LEAST winner - least favorite Amarillo servers, least favorite Amarillo green chili (of anywhere in the USA), and the least interactive/friendly staff & customers of Amarillo … I liked the cafe flair and the grill-guy making grease fires 🔥 though … too many “Run-A-Way Bill” FAVORITE Amarillo places, bartenders, servers, customers & tasty-riffic foods to try the “Golden Light Café” again … #RunAwayBill #rabDUSA2022 #DUSA2022 #rabSelfies #rabRoute66 #rab66Route66_2022 #Route66RunAwayBill #Route66 #HistoricRoute66 #rabEatsOfRoute66 #rabAmarillo #Amarillo #rabRoute66Texas #rabTexas #Texas Friday 11.25.22 (at GoldenLight Amarillo) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClaJkxXuHs0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Amarillo, Texas - “MeMe’s Cafe D.O.C.” (aka “MeMe’s Dang Ole Cafe”) is THE neighborhood eatery in the Historic District … “MeMe’s” marks the west end of the “Historic 6th Street District” … server “Katie” recognized me from the “Circus Room” a couple days earlier - too cool 😃 … the lunch special was one of my favorite Amarillo meals … the soap started the lunch SPECIAL & was almost a meal in itself … the fish, potatoes & green beans were plentiful & then complimented with a mini pumpkin pie for desert - all for only $9 - such a deal … super-riffic server “Katie” tossed in an extra dose of smiles at no extra cost 😊 … a nice nostalgic building from the car-hop days … #RunAwayBill #rabDUSA2022 #DUSA2022 #rabSelfies #rabFavoriteEats #rabEatsOfRoute66 #rabRoute66 #rab66Route66_2022 #Route66RunAwayBill #Route66 #HistoricRoute66 #rabWestwardHo2022 #rabAmarillo #Amarillo #rabRoute66Texas #rabTexas #Texas Friday 11.25.22 (at Meme’s D.O.C cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClaEzCYur93/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Amarillo, Texas - another pARTy Gods find … L👀K’n for the “Silver Spur Motel” and discovered the 24-hour “Cattleman’s” … they are practically neighbors and are both on “Historic Route 66” - surprise! … then I discovered “Cattleman’s” is a contender for the oldest bar in Amarillo - too cool … “Cattleman’s” address is ALSO on “Historic Route 60” and coast-to-coast “US Route 40” - 3 US Routes I hashtag my travels on … “Cattleman’s” restaurant shows it’s years - so old they are apparently allowed to have ashtrays on the restaurant counter and tables - I don’t remember seeing that recently 😂 … I opted out of their turkey meal special for a Mexican plater of everything - enormous meal for $15 (same cost as the Turkey Meal Special) … the nightclub/bar section I noticed when I was leaving - separate entrance (but closed) … #RunAwayBill #rabDUSA2022 #DUSA2022 #rabSelfies #rabFavoriteEats #rabEatsOfRoute66 #rabRoute66 #rab66Route66_2022 #Route66RunAwayBill #Route66 #HistoricRoute66 #rabPartyGodFind #USroute60RunAwayBill #USroute60 #HistoricRoute60 #rabUSroute40 #USroute40 #rabWestwardHo2022 #rabAmarilloTX #AmarilloTexas #rabTexas #Texas #rabRoute66Texas Thursday 11.24.22 (at Cattlemans Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClXPPEduDKu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Amarillo, Texas - in my 73 years of wisdom I have discovered 2 proven lessons: 1. a line of Harley motorcycles outside a bar means a pARTy-riffic bar 2. a line of grey hairs lined up outside a restaurant means good food - CHEAP! … “Ye Olde Pancake House” is that good food cheap place - and lots of it! … my skillet was tasty-riffic “&” enormous for $9.30 (and included a side meal with 2 supersized biscuits & bowl of gravy) - easily a meal for 2 adults … my server “Terri” was super-riffic … I would guess the grey-haired folks are not big tippers (just a guess 🙄) … I collect some unique coffee cups - $10 for a colorful addition to my Route 66 collection … “Ye Olde Pancake Station” is a “Run-A-Way Bill” Favorite eatery - after all, I am a grey-hair myself 😂 … the “Where The Yokels Eat” T-Shirt is smile-riffic 😂 … I looked at the clock and it was 4:20 - thought it was stuck there, but it was working 😂 … lots of smiles, super service & last portions of tasty-riffic food … not officially on “Historic Route 66” BUT I give it “66” status … EAT where the Yokels EAT I say - I will … ask for “Terri” & tell her “Run-A-Way Bill” sent you 😃✌️ … #RunAwayBill #rabDUSA2022 #DUSA2022 #rabSelfies #rabRoute66 #rab66Route66_2022 #Route66RunAwayBill #Route66 #HistoricRoute66 #rabEatsOfRoute66 #rabFavoriteEats #rabFavoriteStickerWinner #rabWestwardHo2022 #rabRoute66Texas #rabTexas #Texas Monday 11.21.22 (at Ye Olde Pancake Station Amarillo) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClPZvrtOiZT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Amarillo, Texas - the pARTy Gods came through again … finding a parking spot in the “Big Texan Steak Restaurant” is a BIG task … cars driving in the parking lot continuously and circling in search of a place to park … “Flo” gets to park right under the “Big Texan” himself - next to the Longhorn Hearst … then, unable to get a full body shot of the boot-wearing Alligator Lizard mascot (“BEVO” I think?), the car blocking my view pulls out to allow the pic - after the pic a car parks immediately … sundown starts too #RunAwayBill #rabDUSA2022 #DUSA2022 #rabSelfies #rabCrazyRAB #rabSunsets #rabRoute66 #rab66Route66_2022 #Route66RunAwayBill #Route66 #HistoricRoute66 #rabEatsOfRoute66 #rabAttractionOfRoute66 #rabWestwardHo2022 #rabPartyGodFind #rabAmarilloTX #AmarilloTexas #rabRoute66Texas #rabTexas #Texas (at The Big Texan Steak Ranch & Brewery) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClN1PC9uVlY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

El Reno, Oklahoma - “the famous “Sid’s Diner” was the highlight of my day … I didn’t remember eating here before, but I researched to discover I ate here in October of 2018 (almost 4 years to the date) … today I ate 1/2 lbs of burger, a chocolate milkshake & a 1/2 basket of greasy fries (the young kid next to be got a FULL order 😳) … in 2018 I ate only 1/4 lbs of beef, fries & choc shake - and did not die 🙄 … the granddaughter of the “Sid” “Sonya” greeted me & introduced me to super-interactive Native American “Tommy” who shared lots of local trivia and interesting facts about the tribes of Oklahoma & El Reno … then “Christine”? and “Leonard” visiting from France shared lots of smiles with me … the diner has wall maps showing home cities of people who ate at “Siid’s” from around the world - if you live along Historic Route 66 the world will come to you … this “Sid’s” burger was the 1st burger I ordered since my “Coddiwomble 2019” adventure (had a burger & a beer in all lower 48 states) was tasty-riffic and worth all the all the fat grams 😋 … Thank You Very pARTy Much “Sonya”, “Tommy”, “Christine” & “Leonard” for the smiles … I thank “Sid” for your burger & fries memory … #RunAwayBill #rabDUSA2022 #DUSA2022 #rabRoute66 #rab66Route66_2022 #Route66RunAwayBill #Route66 #HistoricRoute66 #rabEatsOfRoute66 #rabFavoriteEats #rabCharactersOfRoute66 #rabWestwardHo2022 #rabRoute66Oklahoma #rabOklahoma #Oklahoma Friday 11.18.22 (at SIDS DINER) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClMK16jurxE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
