I like those plugtowers Ed.

I would suppose I'd rather row the rough parts of the route, like plucky old Powell.

Sure enough Ed. Should be a more interesting set

But do you have something against Glendora?

not all sections continue to be maintainedthe ash fork hill was/still is a formidable climb which was re-aligned a couple of times before the I-40 version we use todayi'm so easily entertained, i find the BITD borrow pits interesting, imagine family men scooping water for a steaming radiator ... all the folks of a certain generation that oogled the same road cutsand it's a nice hill to get to the top of

Just in case you get that white line fever and forget where you are




This one was reputedly taken in Glendora, year unknown

I can recognize 3, but who are the other 2?

Spent some fine hours on 66 with Layton Kor and Huntley Ingalls, but those idiots in Oatman gotta stop feeding the wild asses.

Tow-Mater!!

Artists for the Cars movie used the tire shop in Williams.

Neebee, my parents also got AZ Highways, and they are still in business..

but not many route 66 pics..

Maybe you should start an Arizona Highways, or Arizona Pics thread???
Go Gurl!
