February 21-26, 2023 Kingman Arizona Part 2

On Tuesday, February 21st, we stopped at the PO to pick up our mail and then to the Powerhouse that contained the Visitor Center and Route 66 Museum.

Very impressive building:

What a creative person;

And this is what she made:

The Visitor Center and Gift Show:

From there we went to the Route 66 museum where we learned about the history of the road and Kingman. (Note: the next pictures may be hard to read on a phone.  Should be better on a computer.)

(Finding portions of the Beale Wagon Road is still on my bucket list!)

Our ancestors were brave souls!:

I have written about Harvey Houses before and have visited a few of them.  These were some of the rules that the Harvey Girls had to follow.

The museum was like following a time line.  Once we left the 1930-1940’s area, we came to the 1950’s:

Can you see the smile on Andy’s face?

Check out the air conditioner on the passenger window:

Signs along the road:

Some of the small towns:

So sad for many of the towns along the road.

We made our way downstairs where we watched a real nice movie on Route 66 and then made our way to the Electric Car Museum.  Check out some of these cars:

Check out the different chargers  :

And, of course, we just had to drive thru the sign – LOL!

Isn’t he cute!

What a great day.  Stay tuned for our next adventures and enjoy today!
