Getting Their Kicks on Route 66
Hello. Well I’m in countdown mode until June 1 when I head out from the Windy City with Steven V., my fellow traveler on this nutty “dream come true” venture. To set the tone I have written a brief bio of my life so you can appreciate what an amazing guy I am and how lucky the JFR Foundation is I am willing to lend my name to this event.
I invite all my friends (since I have no enemies) to join with me on this trip. For starters, you can sign on as a sponsor and help us reach our goal of $15,000. And of course we’d like to have your suggestions of places to eat, sleep, buy gas for the hog we are driving, and see the most amazing sites.

May 27 and counting. These guys are serious. Buying cushions to sit on. Hats to protect the thinning spots on their heads. Check out their bios. Meanwhile I hear their wives are planning a celebration of their own in Dallas.

I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of the big red caddy in El Reno OK, home of the famous onion-fried burger and just minutes away is Eischen’s Bar, the oldest bar in Oklahoma. I think there should be a big party when the trip is completed….can’t wait to hear the stories…..
