								 The 
								bumper sticker reads "Caution! Kiwis crossing 
								the USA on Route 66.” It was attached to one of 
								six Ford Mustangs making a rest stop at Cliff's 
								on Fifth this week. The group of cars was led by 
								a couple from New Zealand who manage and lead a 
								Route 66 road trip. It began for them as a trip 
								they wanted to make themselves, then they came 
								back bringing family and friends...more than a 
								few times. Now it is a summertime tradition for 
								the couple. On this stint, the group began in 
								California and will end in Chicago where they 
								will meet with a new group and lead the way back 
								to California again.
