"Experience the impact!"

This natural landmark, the "Meteor Crater", is promoted with the same enthusiastic zeal as some of its Route 66 neighbors.




Here's a view of the impact crater from the top rim. Without any familiar point of reference, it seems a lot smaller than it actually is...




It takes a little effort to find many Route 66 memories east of Flagstaff, Arizona ... but some icons still exist.




One of the finest surviving attractions in Winslow, Arizona, is an original Harvey House establishment called "La Posada Hotel" -and one of the best too!




The "La Posada" is currently going through some new landscaping ... but the interior is pristine...







The signpost indicates one of Route 66's most famous attractions...




The sign says it all!












 

The Jackrabbit Trading Post has some pretty stiff competition up the road a piece...

GERONIMO!  ... Oh, that enticing smell of moccasin leather!

 





The grand entrance...




Who wouldn't want to sleep in a plaster wigwam after a long day on 66 ?!!  -The Wigwam Motel in Holbrook, Arizona (not Halbrook as mentioned in the video)




A visitor to the Wigwam never goes wanting for old and rusty cars!



Inside Wigwam # 1 ...
