Day 17 – June 26, 2009
Breakfast at the Silver Spoon Diner on route 66 in Kingman and then off we went heading east on The Mother Road. We begin to see more green in the fields to the left and right. Small trees and shrubs and the tumbleweed is green but still no grass. There are a few small herds of longhorn cattle or other beef breeds. In one of the open semi-desert fields I noticed hundreds of prairie dog holes and little prairie dogs sitting up watching us pass; some were scurrying across the road while others were just resting and sunning themselves on the road. Not real smart animals! We stopped for a rest break and some route 66 souvenir shopping in Seligman, AZ. In Williams AZ we stop for some pictures and Glenn, Kathy, Roger and Ginny decide to stay for the night and then visit the Grand Canyon tomorrow. We will meet them back in Delaware. Bernie, Shirley, Don and I head for Winslow, AZ for the night.
