Arizona is home to the longest stretch of which is one of twenty six different scenic by ways in Arizona,and much of it is still preserved by the local residents that lived it.History and nostalgia lie along the way on this classic road trip as it is a reminder of when there was a slower, simpler time before the Interstate Highway picked up the pace of today.Back then Route 66 was Main Street USA..
