Part of Disney history

Today we had the opportunity to see some of the most famous Route 66 sites in Oklahoma.  One of The first ones was the 66 foot tall soda bottle in Arcadia, Then we saw the round barn just down the road, and then the Rock Cafe in Stroud.  It is a cafe open in 1939 and was made from the rocks taken out of the ground as Route 66 was being built.  It is a small building but has an amazing history especially in recent years.  The owner of the cafe, Dawn Welch, was the inspiration for the car named Sally in the movie Cars.  It was an amazing stop and an even more amazing history lesson.
