Route 66 Museum - Kingman Arizona
The Route 66 Museum is truly unique in that it is a museum of history, housed in a historical building that lighted the way for the earliest Route 66 travelers. The building, built in two phases between 1907 and 1911, was operated by the Desert Power & Light Company and powered early Kingman and area mines starting in July, 1909. It also supplied power for the construction of Hoover Dam, until the Dam began producing cheaper hydroelectric power in the late 1930’s. It was soon mothballed, not to be restored until 60 years later when it was opened as a Visitor Center in 1997.

Aviation Graveyard - Kingman Arizona..!
I Find This Collection Of Photographs To Be MOST Eerie..!
Can You Imagine The Conversations That Took Place Among These Warriors When They Were Gathered Here, Knowing They Were Going To Smelter..!
WE Should Have Been Listening, To EVERY TALE THEY TOLD...
These Machines Of War And The Brave Men & Women Associated With THEM. ARE Responsible For The America That WE Know Today.
If EVER There Was Sacred GROUND It Was HERE..!
They Should Have Been Fenced In And Left @ Peace For ALL To Marvel..!
To Forever TELL Their Tales To Each Other, And Those That Understand..!
As A Kid Looking At These Photos It Was Different - To ME These Fighters And Bombers Were Just The Coolest Things Ever Made…
Then Around 20 Years Old I Began To Enjoy These Photos For What They REALLY Were.
Pictures Of The Most BEAUTIFUL Representations On Earth, Of Machines Designed To Do An Unpleasant Job..!
For PROBABLY 45 Years As I'm Now 66 - (59 When I Posted This To YouTube).
Call Me CRAZY But When I Look At These Photos TODAY...
I Can Hear These Magnificent Utensils Of WAR Talking To Themselves About Their Individual Objectives, Pursuits, And Provenance.
I'm Heartbroken, And Pensive As I Languish The Thought Of THEM Watching Each One Of Their Brothers And Sisters Go To Smelter Never To Return.
Can You IMAGINE The Conversations Between The Remaining Last Dozen Or So..?
The Thought Of The Last Two Or Three Brings A Tear To My Eye…
Then Their Was ONE - And WE As A People Don't Even Have A Photograph Or Know His Or Her Name..?
To Me They Were LIVING Things With HEARTS And Souls, Not Station Wagons...
We Do Not Deserve The Country Handed To Us By The Generation Represented In This Video…
Just Look At Today's State Of Affairs As Witness To What We Have Done With That Generation's Sacrifices.
Wake Up..! Look Back - Hind Site IS 20/20.
Lest We, As A Country, End Up Like These Grand Old Kings And Queens Of The Sky.
IT'S CRIMINAL - NOT TO HAVE SAVED DOZENS OF EACH Of THESE MAJESTIC MARVELS OF ENGINEERING, JUST FUCKING CRIMINAL..!
TUNNEL VISION FOR SURE. WE AS AMERICANS SHOULD HAVE HAD THE FORETHOUGHT TO BUILD A PRESERVE OR NATIONAL PARK SOMEWHERE OUT WEST ALONG THE COAST. TO HOUSE IN WORKING ORDER FOR DEMONSTRATION AND TOURS AND ACTUAL PASSENGER EXCURSIONS, ALL OF OUR EXAMPLES OF SUCH GENIUS.
SOMETHING THE LIKES OF A YELLOWSTONE MAYBE EVEN LARGER..? WITH AN AIRPORT, RAIL ACCESS, SUCH A PLACE WOULD HAVE INCLUDED RAIL, AVIATION, AND NAVAL HISTORY. SO GENERATIONS TO COME COULD MARVEL THE MOST BEAUTIFUL REPRESENTATIONS ON EARTH, OF AMERICA’S GLORIOUS DAYS OF GENIUS. SUBSIDIZED BY THE AMERICAN TAX PAYERS 100 FUCKING % - FOR AS LONG AS WE ARE A NATION..!
“FUCK DISNEYLAND - RIGHT UP YOUR LIBERAL ASS’S”..!

As Posted In These Comments: By MY FRIEND WELDER...
The tumult and the shouting have died away. The B-17's and B-24's will never again assemble into strike formation in the bitter cold of embattled skies. Never again will the musical thunder of their passage cause the very earth to tremble, the source of sound lost in infinity and seeming to emanate from all things, visible and invisible.The great deep-throated engines are forever silent, replaced by the flat, toneless roar of the jets and the rockets.
But, on bleak and lonely winter nights in the English Midlands, ghost squadrons take off silently in the swirling mist of the North Sea from ancient weed-choked runways, and wing away toward the east, never to return. On other nights the deserted woodlands ring with unheard laughter and gay voices of young men and young women who once passed that way.
Recollections of all these fade a little with each passing year until at last there will finally remain only the indelible records of the all-seeing Master of the Universe to recall the deeds of valor excelled by no other nation, arm, or service. These sacred scrolls will forever remain the heritage of the free and untrampled people of this earth.

ROUTE 66 Hackberry General Store, Arizona. (Road Trip USA #2)
ROUTE 66 Hackberry General Store, Arizona. Winter. Hackberry is an unincorporated community in Mohave County, Arizona, United States. Hackberry is located on Arizona State Route 66 (former U.S. Route 66) 23 miles (37 km) northeast of Kingman. Hackberry has a post office which serves 68 residential mailboxes with ZIP code 86411.
In 1992, itinerant artist Bob Waldmire re-opened the Hackberry General Store as a Route 66 tourism information post and souvenir shop on the former Northside Grocery site.
Waldmire sold the store to John and Kerry Pritchard in 1998 due to local disputes regarding the environmental and aesthetic impact of quarries, which by that time were establishing themselves in the area to remove local stone for use in landscaping. The store remains in operation with a collection of vintage cars from the heyday of U.S. Route 66 in Arizona; in 2008, its owners donated land for a new fire hall to be built for the community.

Downtown Randsburg Grand Off Road Round Up 023 The Joint Desert Museum
Off-Road String of Videos (Playlist) California Mojave Desert Mountains by Randsburg Thanksgiving 2015
Photos at
Old West Desert Mountain Town at 3,600 feet (1,104 meters) above sea level (in southern California when as many as 2,000 to 10,000 to 20,000 people camp out in cottages and circle up in RV Round-Ups stretching for thirty miles from Randsburg to Johannesburg along US 395 south to California City, east of Mojave, 2-1/2 hours east of a totally different culture in Los Angeles. Off Roaders, Dirt Bikers and 4 Wheelers, love the basin and range with salt flats and endless twist and turn in the higher elevations of sagebrush hills and desert mountains in the warm southern California chaparral.
On the high end of Main Street in the Living Ghost Town of Randsburg only local artists show in the Randsburg Art Gallery. Randsburg resident population is not 70, not 50, but recently down to 48 people in the heart of this mountain side enclave of Bohemians living on the cool north slope.
Great views extend over mountain ranges Rand, El Paso and southern end of the Sierras to the northwest layering fifty miles deep into the Sierras at the far north of the Owens Valley greatly valued by many Wild West Hollywood movie directors including backgrounds for John Wayne films.
From the wide balcony of the Cottage Hotel at the high end of town, the northeast view looks over the tops of three mountain ranges advancing into lost desert basin and range, layering in greys from light to dark hiding mysteries of pioneers and prospectors of the Audacious Generation struggling against the Wild West impelled by burning visions inspired by travel guides and drawings of the 1850s overland journals telling wild stories of the greatest migration of people in the history of the world. Some of them pared off on the dry eastern drainage of the Sierras. People such as Seldom Seen Slim and desert homesteaders like the prior generations of Scrappy, manager of the Cottage Hotel, happy to be in the area all her life.
Antique phosphate sodas are thankfully not as sweet as many soda pops today.
In the Randsburg Art Gallery a hand painted map of southern California high desert depicts the highest elevation in the continental USA - Mount Whitney 14,495 feet above sea level in the Sequoia National Forest in the southern Sierra Nevada Mountains and a moderate distance to the east-southeast the lowest point in the United States - Death Valley at 282 feet BELOW sea level, too hot and too dry in the summer. In between are military reservations of Fort Irwin desert warfare and armored tank training center, China Lake Naval Weapons Center and Edwards Air Force Base. The map is a fresco 10 foot square. Off map to the northeast in southern Nevada is Nellis Bombing and Gunnery Range and off map to the south is experimental military aircraft development center - Skunk Works, famous since the 1950s with the X-1 to Right Stuff coming together in the X-15.
First Bank of Randsburg was open for six months then failed. Randall Hoot Smith is now the pleasant owner.
Erma Maw - Choctaw Indian Artist.
Scene from Darwin, mining ghost town in southern California. Artist uses as many as thirty layers of paint, many layers use translucent paint.
Randsburg centrally located for hiking in the Sierras of southern Tulare County and eastern Kern County, and also other marvels of the Mojave Desert in southern Inyo County.
Randsburg is about 1200 feet (368 meters) above the much hotter desert floor, hence it is good for overnight stays before heading to Death Valley National Monument or other areas in the Mojave Desert. Only three hours from Los Angeles, Randsburg is also due east of the southern tip of the Sierra.

Passage Through Mohave Territory (Part 5) - U.S. Territory
A war with Mexico challenged Mexico's claim to the southwest. A U.S. Victory in 1845 and a payment of $15 million annexed northern Mexico to the U.S. The Mohave now had to deal with the U.S. Army and the army's superior weapons.

Pima Air & Space Museum Graveyard Boneyard of Planes Tuscon Arizona U.S.A
Pima Air & Space Museum is a world class museum. The planes indoors are worth the attraction fee itself. There are planes that are so rare that you cannot miss this place. Outside, the old boneyard of planes is unbelievable.
