Celebrating the centennial of Route 66 this year will spur people to head out in their vehicles to explore (what's left of) the fabled road.
New Mexico has come up with an incentive for doing so: a passport sticker program.
MSN reported:
New Mexico is celebrating the 100th anniversary of Route 66 with a new passport program that allows travelers to collect stickers from participating businesses along the iconic route. Known as the "Mother Road," Route 66 has a long and varied history, and New Mexico is the only state in the country that hosts one of the original crossroads.
Many road warriors take photos or buy gifts to remember their scenic drive, and now, for the centennial year, the state and main districts of iconic Route 66 communities in New Mexico are teaming up. Travelers can pick up a passport at a business in one of the participating districts throughout the state and collect stickers from each location.
