Taking a road trip to trace the historic Route 66 has been a pastime for many people over the past several years. Many have done so and have posted their journeys in videos on YouTube and on photo websites.
Here's one photo website, Finding The Universe. It belongs to Laurence Norah, who traveled across New Mexico on Route 66 (before he hits a dead end).
Some of the places shown are near to me.

You should know the drill by now! This is part 3 of my series featuring my favourite images from our Route 66 adventure across the US in the summer of 2015. If you’re late to the party, fear not – you can still check out my Route 66 California highlights and Route 66 Arizona highlights.
I have to admit, New Mexico was slightly vexing. I was very excited to visit, not least because I had been led to believe that the state has spectacular sunsets. We even had a whole song on our Route 66 playlist dedicated to the things.
As it was, we were not fortunate with the weather, and didn’t get to see much of a sunset. This was sad, but a reason to return at least! As you’ll see from many of my pictures from this state, it was a bit grey. Ok, very grey. But the views were still excellent, and there were plenty of Route 66 related attractions to keep us happy. Let’s have a look at what we found!
