A Ride Along the Lincoln Highway (0:45) 2008

A Ride Along the Lincoln Highway is a PBS production. I learned a lot from this documentary. The first fact that I learned was that there is a Lincoln Highway, sometimes called Route 30. The Lincoln Highway runs east to west across the United States, starting in Times Square and ending in San Francisco.  The focus of the documentary is the attractions that are off the beaten track. There are interviews of restaurant owners, shopkeepers and Lincoln Highway historians in Pennsylvania, Illinois and other Middle American states. This is a wonderfully refreshing look at a slice of American culture.
