It was just a few miles away from my route, so I detoured to visit the park memorializing the Eagles’ song “Take it Easy”, the Standin’ on a Corner Park in a nice historic town of Winslow, Arizona on old Route 66. It became a quiet town when Interstate Highway 40 by-passed it, but there were still some small businesses around, and to patronize them, I went inside the store right across from the statue, bought a drink and met the very nice owners. We were taking it easy! Every time I will hear that Eagles’ song, I can say that I’ve been on that corner and I was standin’ there 🙂It was worth the stop and experience, it was such a fine place to see. Also, there is something interesting about that structure that can be seen on Google Earth, if you have never been there.)
