Our trip is ending. It has been a dream for the four of us for many, many years. Thank you for coming along for the ride. We leave today to start the journey home.... AND REMEMBER--- WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS, STAYS IN VEGAS!!

Before leaving Kingman, AZ, we stopped to take pictures at Mr. D's diner. Bobbye still could not find any lawn grass. Beautiful drive from Kingman to Hoover Dam. We took a dam tour of the dam with a dam guide. Impressive in scale and history...it's an...

Having left the Grand Canyon area, we got back on Route 66 to Kingman, the longest unbroken stretch of Route 66. After miles of parched land, we were hungry for the sight of grass. The little town of Seligman provided a diverson with it's row of funky...
