Any business owners from Lincoln IL to Joliet looking to retire?

Hi everyone.

I'm keeping an eye out for a property on route 66. I'd love to run a business along it. I have lived here all of my life and I think it would be fun. Everyone keeps telling me the same thing, find a passionate owner looking to retire. So, that's the intent for this post.

If you are looking for a very passionate person to take over your building and/or business please reach out to see if I could be a good fit. I have a background in business, analytics, software development, user experience, and I have a strong background in environmental projects. I'm flexible on a timeline. I have a few business ideas, but mostly I plan on letting the property speak for itself. I'm happy to talk more details.

Regardless, thank you for your time and take care everyone.

I'll be driving from North FL to Southern CA in September, so I want to hop on the part of Route 66 even if it's a bit more north than I need to actually go... I've started researching and thinking I'll jump on at Tucumcari, then go through Abequerque, Gallup, Holbrook, Flagstaff, and Seligman, then prob head south to SD.

Is it worth it to go up to Santa Fe instead of straight through Albequerque? Are any of these cities NOT worth a stop? AZ & NM seem the most interesting part of the road to me with the neon, motels, and old americana and that's what I'm looking for.

Please let me know of any helpful resources you used as I am directionally challenged lol. Thanks in advance!!
