Today is Wednesday! At ROUTE that means that we look at the wacky, the zany along Route66 and beyond. One of the oddest stops along Illinois' impressive section of Mother Road is the delightful, albeit colorful, Braidwood Zoo. You've never been to a zoo quite like it.

True, very true. But new things open too. That is the exciting part about Route 66. It is not Disneyland. It is a living, breathing real snapshot of small and big town America.

Route 66 has played a tremendous role in Illinois’s history, helping to promote travel and commerce from Chicago to East St. Louis and so many communities in between.
