London is super lucky to have a dad like you!

Thanks for risking it to show us the Fishbowl!!!!!!!

🎉🎉 father and son road trip for the win 🎉🎉

Happy Father’s Day, Justin!!

London in years to come you will look back on this trip and cherish it more than you can imagine. I remember so many weekend road trips as a teenager and literally thinking how lame my parents were. However, most of my favorite memories are of those road trips and the neat things we did. Your dad is awesome to spend time with you this way. Thank you both for sharing a great video with the rest of us. I just love the desert and all the cool history and old abandon spots.

Happy Father's Day to Justin and all the other Dad's out there!

Watching these is just filling my heart with good memories from when I drove Route 66 back in 2018. I’m constantly pointing and going to my son “look that’s where we stayed! We ate there! Do you remember that place?” ❤❤

Glad London's not into the teen angst anymore. We hope that eventually he'll get into the sign off, but he does make a great straight man. Keep up the good work, both of you.

Un freaking believable! At the 38.55 mark you can see my truck! We have missed every other time you've been in town and again you were right there! DAMMIT!!!!!

“Happy Father’s Day”Justin. Hope you had a great day. Perfect time for a Father/Son roadtrip. Really enjoyed the video today. Safe travels and hope you both have fun on your adventure down Old Route 66.

I imagine in a post apocalyptic world someone thinking they will eat big tonight having found three cans of burrow, and the disappointment of getting 3 stuffed animals instead 😕

Happy Fathers Day Justin. So nice to see you and your son exploring the great American highway. Travel safe and have fun.

Excellent report. I always learn so much from your videos. I especially like the aligning of past photos with the present. You are a valuable ‘forensic historian’. Anyway - am enjoying these, your energy and tireless enthusiasm towards a unique American treasure: Rte 66! Keep up the good work.

This brings back memories. My wife and I bumped into you in Williams during our Southwest tour in 2017. We walked out of a store and there was a guy with a Randonland hat on. After a double take I saw that it was you. Safe travels!

30:47 As a longtime Route 66 fan, this vintage photograph of Central Commercial Co in Seligman is 🏅 golden! (I’m also a collector of vintage, authentic images from Highway 66.) GREAT WORK, Justin!

Love the way you go Walter Brennan when you say “old west”.

You know what would be freaking crazy awesome!? If you (Justin) drew a map of the places you went and filmed off the side of the road and small towns and places. I loved those maps that were hand drawn kinda cartoony and not to porportion but super creative and fun to explore with your eyes and imagination. Wow! If you ever make a hand drawn map like this I will TOTALLY get one quicker than you can blink your eye!🤩🤩🤩

Happy Father's Day Justin!

Happy Father's Day. Love the Rt 66 videos. Your son is very handsome.

Happy Father's Day!

This trip is going to be epic! 🫶🏻

Happy Father's Day Justin!! Thank You for your adventures. My Wife and I are reliving our Route 66 trip that we did a few years ago, and thanks to you we enjoyed the places you are revisiting.

Great video. Happy Fathers Day.

Love that you showed Williams! My family first moved there in 1935. We love going over there and walking around the stores on Rt 66. Love that my kids have been able to grow up so close to their AZ family roots :D

We love your book. Well done. Go home and " sleep well"❤

Hey, absolutely love your videos from Disneyland Route 66 x 2 favorite places in the world. I started watching your videos about four years ago five years ago I end up taking my two girls on route 66 and I’ve watched a couple other videos but I kind of went off the path that you did, it is true. There is no time limit. Take your time and do what you want but I can say one thing I understand your channel, but there’s nothing better for all of us. Viewers is here a little bit from your son about the memories and the coolness that this is through his eyes , a lot of us have seen and heard and learned about the histories but we like to me and my daughters like to see what your son thinks through his eyes maybe let him talk a little bit on your channel about it. Just a simple suggestion. Thank you for making all these videos it really Has a lot of information for a lot of people that have not done it be safe and enjoy your journey and I pray that you make 1 million memories

My dad and i did route 66 in winter 2021, my favorite of all pur road trips and his as well. A memory we'll have until the end of our days. Your son is lucky

London is awesome! Homeboy is going through it......."Hang in there brother!"

Can't wait to see this!!! I have never seen Cool Springs open.

Hope you had a great Father’s Day! Love these Route 66 vids. I still can’t believe I did that drive up to Oatman last year.. 😅😅 but it was well worth it and I give you all the credit for introducing us to its awesomeness 👏🏻 Williams is definitely high on my list to visit next 😊

Great video as always! I was just in Cool Springs and took the Oatman road about three months ago! It was great!

Was bummed that I had to work today. I saw this before work, and it lifted me up. I love the open road. Happy Father's Day!

Thanks Justin for being us on this fun trip to Oatmana dntbe other towns. London has grown up to be the sitting image of you LOL. Handsome young man

Happy Father's Day Justin! Enjoy your time with your son. My Wife and I took a trip to Utah to reconnect with Mother Nature too. We'll be at Knott's Berry Farm and Disneyland soon...next month. Take care and God Bless.

Happy Father's Day! (I'm a big fan of Williams, too.)

So you get a happy father's day for spending time with your son nice video 🎉

Its been many years since Ive been on a road trip, so Im really enjoying this one with you and London! Be safe, stay healthy, hydrated & happy!! On to the next video, my friend!!! 😎 👍👍

I love it out there. Many fond memories and adventures out that way. Its crazy to see how much more deserted its become since I was there last though. There used to be a ranch just before Oatman that had chuckwagon and mining tours. That was the best place. ❤

I LOVED THIS VIDEO SHOUTOUT U AND LONDON!!

No way! You passed by my Indian reservation! That's so cool! I'm from peach springs! I'm glad u enjoyed the part before the rez lol

Spent two nights in Wms, loved it.

Cool

I was just in Kingman & Oatman last year. It was cool to see your take on it. Thanks!

London is all grown up. 😭 I still remember your first video at WDW, where he was on a bunk bed at Animal Kingdom

What's that? Is that London calling? Whoa mule. Whoa!

Need to take dad to have an Oatman Root beer Float, one of the best.

My favorite drive!

Olive Oatman was actually saved by the Aha Macav (Mojaves) from another tribe and became one of them 👍

Happy Fathers Day! Will you be covering the 100th Burning of Zozobra in Santa Fe this year?!

I just now realized that ending quote is from the movie The Untouchables!

Next time through there pick up a couple of them railroad spikes and let me know I'll buy em up. 😉 Thanks for sharing your adventure with your son.

Very cool video. Thank you!!

London is growing up, he is a mini you Justin. I am so glad you two are on route 66 again I am in the mood to see these attractions.

Born in Kingman 75 raised in Bullhead lots of water in the desert just got to know where to look

I’ll always remember going through Williams. We did the Grand Canyon train, and on the way back to Williams, we hit a cow! Must’ve dragged part of it back because there were chunks on the road crossing at Grand Canyon blvd 😳 goood times. 😯

37:16 Sweet Tarts Rope Bites......my man! 😛

CLARK Gable got around lol..he stayed at Wolf Creek Inn here in Oregon...( also haunted supposedly) anyway..it's a cool place outside Grant's Pass. This was fun!!!❤

Londom done growed up. Seems like he was just 8 yrs old last week at WDW. Happy Father's Day.

Happy Father's day kiddo. Enjoy your adventures. So excited that u are at it again! Cool beans! Hi London! U have a cool dad. Have fun u guys ❤❤❤

It’s a fantastic video keep it up

Got my kicks in flagstaff travel safely you guys

I lived right outside of Ash Fork off the grid for about a year or so. My experience of Ash Fork was not pleasant like you show and we had to be warry of not very nice people (to say the least). Living out there off the grid our neighbors had a pet buffalo! That was cool. We had to drive to Williams to do our laundry. I liked Williams. It would be interesting to go back. And yes it would be amazing to revamp Ash Fork.

Great Video Justin

Great video justin

We stopped took pics of Hi-line and had a couple beers in the Oasis in 2022 :-)

Great video just just love these cute donkeys

Oatman is awesome. Hey, if you have enough footage left over, make another video with that and call it the "B Roll".

Love the burros.

Someone buy that kid a SMILE. Geesh....

Hey! There's been some cool new things added in Sapulpa, OK, most especially the reopened TeePee Drive Inn. And don't miss the new neon on 11th St in Tulsa, not surprisingly a lot of it is near Buck Atoms. And speaking of BA, on the 28th Stella Atoms will be joining Buck! (Would you look at the size of her Laser Gun!) Safe travels, loving the videos!!

😂 London wondering why you wanted a file📁. I hope you are enjoying each others company. I know you'll treasure this time and I reckon London will too.

Your sign was there six months ago when I was there

GREAT DRONE SHOT AT THE END!!🙌 was London flying the drone while you drove or do you have a fancy one with the “follow me” feature? 😎

Not the bees!!😂

37:23 It looks like the picture was taken from the northeast corner at the intersection. The white and green building has been replaced with the building that looks like a garage, and the white house with the black roof and brick chimney is an empty lot.

London is looking like he’s ready to go cereal killer on you! Hello

Not sure but the Oatman Hotel may be ADA exempt because of its age and historic significance. But fire code compliance could be an issue.

You mention it being hard to find Route 66 artifacts. Maybe you already know, but downstairs in the antique store (I can't remember the name) across the street from Station there is a huge collection of old postcards and Route 66 items. At least, there was a few weeks ago.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY AND ALSO GO TO THE POOZEUM IN WILLIAMS ME AND MY FAMILY WERE THERE 2 DAYS BEFORE YOU JUSTIN!!!?

Is that pool on the way to Oatman the famous spring Madam Zeroni wanted to drink from? That donkey following you in Oatman, looks just like Eyeore the way he walks, lol

Happy Father's Day, Justin. Where's your Mustang and the van? I haven't seen them in a while?

There was a big fire in ash fork years ago that burned many houses and buildings.

Hey Pop! In 20 years he'll wish he'd been more enthusiastic.

22:49 Amazing fact about Oatman. Imagine being on the run and getting a job Cooking and washing dishes and know that you have you have a shot that no one will check Oatman looking for you. then Bingo your found after you made rally good friends with a few Jackasses! LOL

Thank you for visiting Ash Fork. 😊 In the old photo, at 34:37, take a look at the left side of the Harvey House, see the chimney? It still stands today. Edit: the Harvey House extends a bit in the photo, so look more left a bit.. I’d say it’s about 15 feet higher than the roof.

Come theough Bisbee for the 4th

Someone painted a fish on the road? Used to be harder to find, I hope this doesn't mean it gets ruined

Aww....that Misty looks quite a bit like my dear, departed Misty, who was "mine" from a few days after she was born, in 1993, until the day she passed on to the next life in my arms 18 1/2 years later in 2011. 😿

I took the old rustic road up from Laughlin to Oatman, luckily with my all wheel drive vehicle. It turned into a twisty, curved dirt and rock road. I enjoyed it, but my passenger hated it. Of course I enjoyed spending a couple hours in Oatman and he hated it. We took the more modern road down to Fort Mohave. The Burros will block the road on your way out of town and come up to your car for food as if you’re being held hostage, haha. I thought it was a wonderful 1/2 day trip from staying in Laughlin Nevada.

Have you visited Cerro Gordo?

London’s gotten so handsome 🥰

Get your kicks on route 66

How do these small towns get water being in middle of nowhere

London does not seem impressed. Lol. That's too bad, really. I'm sure he will look back on this time with more fondness than he is currently displaying. 😁

We are doing this part next year. Can you give advice on how to get to 66 from Santa Monica so we don't miss anything?

did Justin get A drone?? maybe for fathers day?

Maybe that was a store for workers. Some companies even paid them with their money. So they were forced to stay with the company

Wish the fishbowl could be cleaned up!! Hope nothing is actually drinking from it!!!

I posted this on Justin’s Amboy video, the first in this current father/son Route 66 series but for some reason, it sits there alone on the mobile version of KZfaq. Anyway, I wanted to get the message to Mr. Willits so here it is again: The quality of the research, the professionalism of the presentation, attention to detail and the passion of the narration in general is why, in my estimation, Justin Willits is the standard bearer of these road trip/back road/Route 66 videos. To me, no one comes close. My brother and I made the trip from Chicago to LA in 2017 as well and it was glorious. I hope this journey with your young son is as fruitful and wonderful for you as it was for us. God bless you and your family.

West to East? How are you in Cool Springs before Oatman? I think you are backwards
