    CLINTON, Okla. ( KFOR ) — The Oklahoma Route 66 Museum is set to open its new photo exhibit called “Discovering 66,” on Saturday, July 27.

    The new exhibit will feature photos taken by Rhys Martin, president of the Oklahoma Route 66 Association.

    Martin, who grew up in the Tulsa area, says that he had never given historic Route 66 a thought until he took a life-changing trip around the world. Following his trip, he returned and realized that Route 66 was a mirror of his own experience for tens of thousands of travelers from around the world.
