The Mother Road on Chinleana

8:32 pm

Don’t miss this gem of a post by Bill Parker of Chinleana on Route 66 and its influence on Triassic paleontology. I live just a block away from the historic route where it passes through Albuquerque—while it’s miles away from the Arizona quarries Bill mentions, I’ll take it as an opportunity to draw new inspiration from the motel neon flashing in my studio window.

  1. Matt,

    Thanks for the plug. I’m glad you enjoyed the post. I was sorry it got a bit overshadowed by a Jurassic dinosaur but am glad you are drawing attention to it.

    It’s hard even today to not be influenced by Route 66.

    Bill
