Last night we attended the screening of Route 66: The Main Street of America by John Paget

It was a fantastic film!! Great storytelling, awesome camera work, and a great film depicting how alive Route 66 has become and how it is still thriving!

Of course they had to stop by and get some lunch on their way to the next screening in Litchfield, IL.

It was a pleasure working with John and his crew. Safe travels and Keep it Cozy!!
