What an incredible journey. We love your blog. I am a route 66 fan and for many years contributed to the Route 66 Preservation Society.

Very interesting about Edwin Hubble being born in Marshfield. Knowing there was a strong connection between Hubble and Wheaton. checking the internet I learned that Hubble moved from Marshfield to Wheaton before the age of one. As you probably know, one of Wheaton’s Middle Schools is named after Edwin Hubble.
