Description
Well this is the last of this series, I thank you all for following along and glad that some of you really seemed to enjoyed it. I promise to now get back to my barns, mills and other things I truly love to photograph..
I loved this one it brings back memories of cruising down route 66 on our way back to California one year we took I-40 for the majority of the trip but then decided to drive along route 66 for a while what fun!!!!
I remember stopping to tour the Grand Canyon Caverns, which were discovered by a man that was walking through the area on a way to a poker game, he was late for the game so he took a short cut and tripped and fell and found him self staring into a sinkhole that looked like a bottomless pit, and the Grand Canyon Caverns were discovered. Though Walter originally thought he had found a lost gold mine, further investigation proved that it was a natural limestone cave that contained no gold or precious gems at all. Walter wasn't about to give up though. The new U.S. Highway 66 passed close by and with a little promotion he thought he could entice visitors to pay a quarter to see his cave. After he lowered them down into his hole he also thought he could entice visitors to pay 50 cents to be hauled back out too. Walter was a true entrepreneur it seems. Fun place to visit if you are ever out that way. Oh and nowadays it a bit more modern you go down to the mine by elevators now not on a rope... :)

Nice shot :) Route 66 has been a part of my life forever. I drive on it almost every day. It still strange to think that it can take me clear to Chicago!

Now these little ones look very elegant. This has been a great series and I have enjoyed seeing them all. That Walter sounds to have been a real character.

Good ole Route 66!!! Nice capture!

Oh, for sure, this last of the series is a real gas, Lynell! Cool capture! I really enjoyed this series, marveling at what some people, who have too much time on their hands, can come up with in a creative sense. Oh well, better than watching television all day. And it's a money earner, to boot! So, now, it's back to photographing the barns, mills, old cars, and whatever else you find out there in and around Tennessee. And be sure to check out my 1910 Dancers posting for today.

That sort of entrepreneurship can get you shot! This has been a great series. I have to admit the Route 66 shakers are my favorite. We took it on the way back to California from New York 49 years ago.

These are cool, especially the route 66 ones! I've never lived anywhere near route 66, but I'd love to have this set! Great image and series!
blondeblurr
Should I ever travel to the U.S. - trust me, the Route 66 will be a must for me to see. All in all, now that the movers & shakers have been put to bed, it's time again for the real world, of Lynell's countryside exploits. BB
