Reached the turn around point for the Route 66 ash scattering trip for my brother-in-law Steven Bleicher. Included in this video is part of an interview with Blaine Davis, the son of the man who built the Blue Whale of Catoosa. Martie McNabb and I happened to meet him in the gift shop of the National Route 66 Museum in Elk City, Oklahoma. What are the chances?
