Route 66 October 24, '12

Truxton, AZ.  NO photo shop on any of these pics, yes, the sky IS that blue :-)

Would take a lot of work to restore this old Ford.  This is my last day to ride on "The Mother Road" this year.  Heading South to Yuma on the 25th.  


Ed and Carl.  Going down the hill just East of Valentine, AZ.

There was a horse just like this on a gas station in Grants Pass, OR in the 1940's and 50's.  Used to buy gas there when I was a teenager.

"The Boys" at Hackberry

Back in "the day", people probably groaned when they read this sign.  Now, it will take about 4 hours if they stay on the 75 mph speed limit on I-40.

Jack Foree, a Native Arizonan, went to grade school in Holbrook.  This was his desk.  He didn't have far to get to the boy's room.

Still waiting for the Greyhound to stop.

Not an old sign.  This is on the new Route 66 gas station on the East side of Kingman.  This stuff keeps me going :-) The diet kind, of course.
