Our Route 66 Adventures: Supertam on 66

Date of Visit: April 29, 2026

We had originally planned to visit Supertam on 66 on our way to Joplin, but it wasn't opened when we tried to go. On our way back to Springfield, Missouri, we found it was open.

Supertam on 66 is part ice cream shop and part Superman museum. The shop is filled with a wide variety of mostly Superman memorabilia.

There are a few other superheroes represented as well including Wonder Woman.

Of course, we had to have some ice cream. I had Apple Cider Donut. Dad had Oatmeal Cookie and Malt Amore.

Our Route 66 Adventures: Praying Hands Memorial

Date of Visit: April 29, 2026

The Praying Hand Memorial is located a little bit off of Route 66 in Webb City, Missouri. It was not on our original plan for the day, but it was recommended to us when we stopped in at the Webb City Route 66 Welcome Center.

At the start of the walkway is a mural about the Praying Hands Memorial.

Nearby there is The Kneeling Miner done by the same artist.

Mini Golf Adventures: Aloha Mini Golf - Indoor Course

Date of Visit: May 22, 2026

Location: Aloha Mini Golf, Myrtle Beach, SC

Course: Indoor

We originally planned to go mini golfing on Memorial Day as that was the one day we did not expect them to be working on Mik's shower remodel. They ended up deciding they would work on Memorial Day, but on the Friday before they were not expected to work until the afternoon, so Dad, Nora, and I went mini golfing leaving Mom home with Mik in case the workers showed up early, which they did...like right after we left around 9am.

We had hoped to go to Spy Glass Mini Golf as it was the one I drew out of the jar, but as it was raining, we ended up going to Aloha Mini Golf because they have an indoor course.

The indoor course may not have been as interesting as the outdoor courses, but it had a fun tiki bar vibe and a variety of interesting obstacles.

Our Route 66 Adventures: Murals at Joplin City Hall

Date of Visit: April 29, 2026

We visited the City Hall in Joplin for the Visit Joplin stamp in the Mother Road Passport. While we didn't end up figuring out where to get the stamp, we did enjoy the murals in the City Hall as well as the exhibit about the creation of the Joplin at the Turn of the Century, 1896-1906 mural.

Our Route 66 Adventures: World Street Painting Gallery, Joplin, MO

Yeehaw 66

Date of Visit: April 29, 2026

The World Street Painting Gallery was an unplanned find near the Joplin History & Mineral Museum. These were originally done in June 2025 and it appears they will be doing more this June in honor of Route 66's 100th. Most of the art was Route 66 themed.
