Today’s journey took us from Sedona (AZ) through a tiny corner of Nevada (Loughlin) on into California. Along the way, we stopped in Williams (AZ), Seligman and Kingman (AZ), and are now in Barstow, California.
Williams was the last town to capitulate when Route 66 was officially decommissioned. They fought in the courts, but finally lost the battle. Now, Williams has some downtown displays, a purportedly haunted bar called “The Black Cat,” and, according to the woman who assisted me at a roadside gas station, her own house is haunted. (Mainly by a cat belonging to the previous owner who built it.)
Seligman had a Polar Express train display, but little else.
Kingman has a haunted motel called the Beale Hotel on Main Street, and another place where a local doctor took his victims to murder them.
It took from 11 a.m. until 8 p.m. to reach Barstown, California, where we are now.
