Room five is our favorite, though the wireless signal doesn't quite find its way through the thick stucco walls in that corner. I could happily spend the rest of my life in Tucumcari, basking in the neon at the Swallow, eating at Kix and La Cita, jogging up the mountain at dawn or down 66 under the neon at dusk, stocking up on chiles and pintos at the Coolest Grocery Store in the Universe, and shopping at the feed store.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12250110.post-14251333224110429802008-10-06T16:28:00.000-06:002008-10-06T16:28:00.000-06:00Enjoy your trip!Enjoy your trip!AMomof2https://www.blogger.com/profile/16313558247966928986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12250110.post-69401497414592446812008-10-06T01:16:00.000-06:002008-10-06T01:16:00.000-06:00Good on ya.

The Blue Swallow is our favorite Route 66 motel, and Tucumcari is one of our favorite Route 66 towns.<BR/><BR/>Make sure you eat at Kix on 66 down the street. The Huevos Rancheros are excellent, as is just about everything else there.<BR/><BR/>We, too, saw a movie in that old theater. Not even a horrid flick like "Kangaroo Jack" detracted from our enjoyment of the experience.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
