A Stop at Russell's Travel Center in Glenrio, New Mexico












Travel brochures for those
passing through...








Russell's has a very
nice store.





I must visit the Free
Car Museum.




Russell's owner is a collector
who displays some of his
favorite cars & motorcycles
here.










A timeline of Automotive
History lines the walls
of the museum.











1957 T-Bird
Convertible





















































Mr. Russell's pedal cars are
on display, with a mesa
in the background.








1956 Crown Victoria





John Wayne, "The Duke," & the
 Old West are on display in the
 middle of the museum.







So much memorabilia &
not enough time...












Check out this beautifully
restored Willys.






This is the precursor to the Jeep.

modern day.
Wow!  Eric an I drove to Russell's Travel Center to stretch our legs before continuing today's drive. We enjoyed Mr. Russell's car collection, the timeline of Automotive History and his amazing collection of memorabilia.
