I   hit some bumpy roads and no matter which direction I turned the wind seemed to be in my face, but it was not too strong.   I mention this because out in the open land this is not an unusual feeling. Today there was little elevation gain.  It was  in the mid 80s, but with the humidity it felt like mid 90s.

This is one of the top Route 66 museums.  There are several cars on display.  They are limiting 30 people inside.  This is worth the stop when you go through Clinton.

The inside of the  museum will stimulate your senses.

Along this trip I have happened upon some really great sites. This is the entrance of the McLain Rogers Park in Clinton.  This was constructed as part of the Federal works projects of the 30s and became a favorite stop along Route 66.  It is on the National Registry of Historic Places.  Learn more at  ​http://route66times.com/l/ok/clinton-mclain-park.htm

I find a KOA near Foss.  Staying here is a nice break.  People in these sure turn their heads when I bike by their RV or trailer.  What friendly people.  They stopped over to visit and brought me freash fruit and  vegetables.  What a treat!  I enjoyed the pool too.
