Route 66 was replaced by Interstate 40 (I-40), however parts of it still exist and it is popular among car show enthusiasts.

During 1920s farmers expanded production of winter wheat, this destroyed natural grasses that held soil in place Drought struck in 1930s. Soil dried and winds picked it up and blew it away Dust storms called “Black Blizzards” covered fields, houses, everything. They rose up to 8,000 ft and blew dirt over major U.S. cities

Okies –name given to homeless migrant families of the Dust Bowl era. 800,000 people migrated to California. As the Depression continued those without money were turned away at the Stateline for vagrancy.
