KINGMAN, ARIZONA

AFTER 18 YEARS ON THE LOWER MOHAVE DESERT IN THE WINTER, YOU THINK I WOULD GIVE UP WRITING THESE GOOD WEATHER BLOGS, WHILE THE WINTER WEATHER SUCKS IN THE MIDWEST.

AFTER LOOKING UP TODAY’S SPOONER WEATHER I JUST COULDN’T HELP MYSELF.

HERE WE ARE GETTING THE SCOOTER READY FOR A SCOOTER TRIP TO KINGMAN. THE OLD ORIGINAL ROUTE 66 RUNS JUST EIGHT MILES WEST OF WINTER CAMP THROUGH OATMAN, OVER THE BLACK MOUNTAINS, PAST COOL SPRINGS, INTO GOLDEN VALLEY, AND ON TO KINGMAN, ABOUT 50 MILES ONE WAY.

KINGMAN IS THE COUNTY SEAT FOR MOHAVE COUNTY, WHICH IS THE 5TH LARGEST COUNTY IN THE COUNTRY. WE PARKED AT THE VISITORS CENTER, AND DID A WALK-ABOUT DOWNTOWN.

IF YOU LOOK REAL CLOSE, YOU CAN SEE ME JUST CLIMBING INTO THE ENGINEERS SEAT.

HERE IS A GOOD SPOT TO PARK MY BUTT WHILE MARY LOOKS THROUGH ALL THE SHOPS.
