Todays Adventures: More Route 66 Adventures, AZ

Reconnected at where I had begun exploring Rt 66 in Kingman, AZ only this time heading east. As before I not only enjoy the scenery but I am imagining what certain populations saw / felt on their travels. The “Oakies” in the Great Depression must have felt fear as they crossed what was then a most hostile environment with all their earthly possessions and very little resources. I also imagine the USA young families in the 1950’s taking in what was the height of modern activity, the family vacation crossing multiple states. I admit to mostly imaging the experiences Oakies – I am a recent impressionable reader of Steinbeck’s “Grapes of Wrath”.
