SSCR...either you are as old as I am or a great music fan.
Nat "King" Cole set the standard with that one.
Unfortunately, nobody can pronounce 'route' (root) correctly anymore....they want to make it sound like a military disaster (rout)
Well, I noticed on your profile that you're ready for grandchildren. I'm not quite there yet, but I'm not not too far away either!
"Route 66" was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this pic. Nat King Cole's version is great, but I also have a special liking for Rosemary Clooney's version. I like that little "scoop" she does on "kicks". Bits and pieces of the old "root" still exist in Illinois, and they're noted along I-55, so when I drive to St. Louis, I have ample opportunities to play the old tune in my head.
