Sep 2016 - Tucumcari, New Mexico is on old Route 66 and I always stop here when driving I-40\Route 66 through New Mexico. There are a lot of towns, villages and cities along the old Route 66, but Tucumcari is my favorite for experiencing a slice of life from the old Route 66 era. I've got several Photo-Stories that include Tucumcari from other trips. This most recent time I stopped on my way back from Colorado, and as is almost always the case, I found more interesting sights to photograph. If you ever get a chance to spend some time here, be sure to include it in your itinerary! :-)
