So, you may have noticed that we now have a pair of official followers. Blogger is a free service and if you sign up for a Blogger ID you can ‘follow’ this Blog and be notified when we make an update! Neat, eh?
Here’s how you do it:
1. In the upper right corner of the window, you should have a ‘Create Blog | Sign In’ set of hyperlinks. If you already have a Gmail or other Google account, click on ‘Sign In’. If you don’t have any type of Google account, go here instead:
2. For your registration, enter in the usual info (email addy, password, etc).
3. Once your registration is complete, return to this blog. On the right hand side, not only will you see who our followers are, but you’ll have an option to click ‘Follow this Blog’. You can follow publicly or anonymously. Now you can log into Google Dashboard to see updates, or sign up to recieve them via e-mail or an RSS feed.
Sweet! Shoot me an email if you have any questions about it.
Rhys Martin is an author and photographer from Tulsa, Oklahoma. His love of travel was awakened in 2009 when he sold all of his possessions and left the country. For ten months, he lived out of a backpack and explored southeast Asia and Europe. When he returned home, it was with fresh eyes for his home state.
As he drove the back roads of Oklahoma, Rhys discovered the significance of historic Route 66 to the greater American story. He has traveled all 2,448 miles of the Mother Road and continues to seek out the quiet Main Streets of the Midwest.
Rhys's travel writing and photography has been featured in numerous publications, including Tulsa People Magazine, This Land Press, ROUTE Magazine, Nimrod Journal, The Oklahoman and Tulsa World. He wrote the book Lost Restaurants of Tulsa, which features the stories of nearly 50 iconic eating establishments from the city's past. He has also been a contributing author to multiple Route 66-based travel and history books.
Rhys is the President of the Oklahoma Route 66 Association and serves on multiple boards and commissions related to the Mother Road and its upcoming Centennial in 2026. He loves to connect with people and share his experiences.
