Did You Know...............??? September 7, 2009 (city, Arizona, California, Florida)

The longest U.S. highway is route 6 starting in Cape Cod, Massachusetts going through 14 states, and ending in Bishop, California.

....I don't know that I've been on it in any other states except Mass. How about you? What's it like in your state? Here on the Cape, it's flanked with scrub pines and barren oaks.

[Dbl-r]

is that route 6 across the country? I have been back and forth and never once can I recall ever seeing it?

Yeah, I have actually heard of this highway but I don't recall ever traveling on it.

Even though I've never been on route 6 up north, I have been on the old route 66 from New Mexico to California (now Interstate 40). The last time I went out that way, we got off on another highway at Kingman, AZ and went to Las Vegas. We had a blast on that trip!

I've traveled some of the CA section on the eastern side of the Sierra's but it's mostly known as 395 there.

We don't have Route 6 in Florida, but that is an interesting DYK!

Thanks CoastalMaine for filling in for me while I was away! You did some great DYK's! I appreciate it!
