I live walking distance from Route 66 in Berwyn, IL
They have a yearly Car show.
Back in 2001 I remember Ham Radio Operators were transmitting at the Route 66 car show having a contest along Route 66 Chicago - L.A. and I did some Shortwave listening and sent reports to obtain several QSL cards ,the same week I went to a First Day Ceremony for EID stamp and that happened a week or so before September 11 .... that was an event that made me forget about hobbies all together for months.
