Something I'd be interested in, would be watching the trains in Winslow at the LaPosada hotel. It's an old Harvey house hotel, and Resaurant.

@auroranite 2 жыл бұрын

The book, Appetite for America, is a great read on Harvey Hotel chain. Amazing what they provided for travelers in that era.

I spent ten years of my career at UPS driving cross country. Sleeper team two man operation, one drives while the other sleeps. We ran L.A. to Greensboro NC and back in 3.5 days. The first shift was L.A. to Winslow. We used to get off there at the McDonalds and there was a great little family run Mexican restaurant across the street, great burritos. I never got to see "the Corner", the streets are too narrow to get a big rig down there and no where to park one. A couple years ago I took a road trip all thru northern AZ and up into CO. So I finally got to stand there and it was great.

Say hi to Tommy Dukes. He's an outstanding blues player that sometimes sits at the intersection playing guitar and singing. I pulled out my harmonicas and jammed with him for about 45 minutes. What a good time!

The two statues are Glenn Frey (long hair) and Jackson Browne who co-wrote the song that the band The Eagles made popular 50 years ago. Yes it was 50 years ago can you believe it! How time flies! Thanks Russ for taking us to Winslow to stand on that corner with you!

Very cool to visit Winslow with you this afternoon, Russ. I've been there several times, even stayed in the Clark Gable room in the historic La Posada Hotel. The Old Trails Museum is just down the street from "the corner"--it's small but worth a visit. Say, if you're heading towards Holbrook, maybe you can do a little tour of the Wigwam Hotel? Until next time, take it easy! ;-)

My Dad was a cowboy for the ranch that owns the Crater. Mom ran the gift store and visitor center. If you look off to the south you will see the Niniger Visitor center and tower. That's where we lived. Arizona suggested that the ranch give the site to the state. Ranch owners said sure, pay us for all the improvements we did.... That was the end of that

@richardl.7390 2 жыл бұрын

I missed "the corner" in your original stream by a minute or two ... Now I saw it with the "Route 66" sign imbedded in the asphalt. AWESOME ! You should check "Homolovi State Park" if you continue Eastward on Interstate-40 towards Petrified Forest. The Park is a couple of miles North of the Interstate and the campground is mostly empty. Nice place to stop overnight. RICHARD

I can’t believe you parked RIGHT IN FRONT of La Posada Hotel and didn’t go inside. You missed out on something very special there. It’s meticulously restored Harvey House, with a museum in the back against the tracks where Amtrak picks up and drops off passengers… right there at the hotel. You could’ve had lunch or dinner at the famous Turquoise Room. Maybe next time, eh?

But it is a dry heat Russ. At least that is what they always told me when I lived out there. You say you drove past Windslow, AZ many times in the past. Just goes to show in our younger days we are always in a hurry. As we get older we learn to slow down and smell the roses. I am glad you slowed down now and allow us to ride along with you to some very special places. Stay safe my friend and keep the van between the ditches.

It was a great week and I have photos of my wife and I standing on the corner of Winslow Arizona. I highly recommend spending a week in this area. By the way we ate at the La Posada Hotel and watched the trains go by as well.

What a pretty iconic corner in Winslow Arizona you and I must be about the same age Russ. I was probably about I don't know 17 maybe I remember being in my mother's kitchen helping her clean up and the song was on the radio yeah and I couldn't understand it said I thought it said there's there's a girl my Lord on a flap I couldn't hear what I understand what it said flatbed Ford I think it was slowing down to take a look at me or something but I remember thinking how cool it sounded to go travel somewhere. Amazing all these years later and I still have people taking pictures at the same spot.
