High point of the day: Seeing the Grand Canyon.

Low point of the day: Adding up the day’s expenses We overspent! We seriously need to cut back the next few days.

Quote of the day: “Every time someone thanks me for helping to revive Route 66, it makes me so happy,” says Angel Delgadillo owner of Delgadillo's Route 66 Gift/Barber Shop and the founder of the Route 66 association.

Maybe you should invite your parents to meet you somewhere along the way to take you out to dinner to save some money--maybe you could find a nice place to eat in St. Louis and suggest they join you--
