Buddy of mine and I drove from Henderson, NV traveling to Wickenburg, AZ. He didn't have much gas in the tank, but ASSURED me that he'd find a station enroute. I wasn't concerned because he lives in AZ. We drove ... and drove ... and drove ... through some pretty bleak territory, but no gas station !! Finally, we see a sign ahead for Seligman and there WAS a gas station. We came in on fumes. After a sigh of relief, I went inside and saw a souvenir Route 66 decal with "Seligman" on it. I bought it, and keep it displayed on my dashboard to remind me NEVER to forget to get gas and keep a FULL tank whenever I'm traveling through the boondocks. No problems thus far !

@josephking5411 Год назад

That's a good story.

@tjadventures9163 Год назад

Im confused, if you live near Vegas you are supposed to turn on 93 to head to Wickiup then Wickenburg but you kept heading on 40 to Seligman.Unless you took the 89 at Ash Fork to Prescott down to Congress on the back roads which is really out of the way. I drive to Wickenburg all the time from Vegas.

@ericthered760 Год назад

@@tjadventures9163 I don't live near Vegas and I can't recall the exact route we took - he was driving. All I remember was that it wasn't interstate, but it was a divided highway. Our ultimate destination that day was Prescott; but I vividly recall Seligman and have the "souvenir" to remind me about the gas !

Across the Street from Roadkill Cafe is Lilo's Westside Cafe owned by my fellow German Lilo and her family. This is where the locals go and eat because the food is better and cheaper than in the Roadkill Cafe which is a tourist trap. A little background info: The owner of this cafe were in a German TV Show/Documentary when they exchanged restaurants with a family in my Bavarian hometown for a year, My grandmother used to run that German restaurant when I was young.. Their entire family ran the German restaurant while the German family ran Lilo's. Was a fun show about a decade ago. They have a big fan club in Germany LOL. Try Lilo's, you won't regret it.

Great food, great servers and when you get to see lilo she's as sweet as can be, we as a community lost pat her husband last year, he was such nice man. Their whole is very nice.

You say the motel has 140 TV channels. Back in 1961 when we went through several times a motel was lucky to have 3 channels. Back then it wasn't all gussied up like it is now. The old cafes were fun back then. The movie "Cars" wasn't even thought of in 1961. That movie was made long after the demise of Route 66.

@msdebagain1 Год назад

thank you for this. since the late 50's my family took the 66. we'd drive cross country from san diego to Virginia, but dad would always take the 66 from beginning to end I remember staying in alot of those motels, eating at diners, such a fun time!

@lauraslanesvanlifetravels Год назад

I took a trip that included Seligman, but when I went it was in the middle of the summer and it was still too hot for me, even tho it was cooler than Phoenix, where I'm from, so I couldn't really get out and walk around, so I appreciate you doing it and giving us a walking tour! It was also Sunday so most of the places were closed...unfortunately. I went from Phoenix to Lake Havasu, Oatman, Kingman, Seligman, Williams, Ash Fork, Flagstaff and then to Zion national park...it was a great trip but then my car totally broke down right before I hit Flagstaff on the way back and I had to use TWO of my towes in order to get it back home, the car was toast (the timing belt had broken) but it was a really great trip otherwise...first time I had ever been to the majority of those places.

Ah, my favorite stretch of of Mother Road! In Seligman I've had the honor of meeting both Juan Delgadillo of the "Dead Chicken" (who played little pranks on everyone he served) and his brother Angel who ran the barber shop next door (and was one of the folks who spurred the re-invigoration of 66 in Arizona). Have a good weekend Russ, see you next time!

We were there in Seligman on 66 a few weeks ago and ate at the Road Kill Cafe which was pretty nice and not expensive. Also just looked at some of the curio shops trying to see if I could find something pretty specific but could not (got close). Very fun. Not a lot there but it is interesting.

@cavecookie1 6 месяцев назад

Actually, it runs all the way to Needles, Ca, from Seligman, including my old home town of Oatman. The annual Rt. 66 Fun Run weekend is a 2 day affair, starting in Seligman, on Saturday, driving all the cool old cars to Kingman, for Saturday night, and then on to Needles on Sunday.

@richardl.7390 Год назад

Hello Russ ! In California, there is a stretch of Route 66 between Exit 114 of Interstate-40 and Ludlow that was previously administered by the National Historic Trails Association but has come recently under the jurisdiction of the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors. Some of the little bridges are in such a state of disrepair that half of this stretch has been closed to the public because it has become so dangerous. If the road had fallen under the authority of CALTRANS, these insignificant expenses would have long ago been taken care of. The CBoS will probably get the money to repair them soon. I always stop for fuel at the Shell Station where I-40 meets Route 66 east of Seligman and I slept at the Seligman KOA once. Beautiful documentary as always !! Keep it up. RICHARD P.S. The Chevrolet towtruck was a late 1960s model, they came with a 427 c.i.d. V8. I drove one of these "straightbodies" when I was 19.

@helenburke9999 Год назад

Hey Russ at 21:35 you were approaching (and made a quick reference to) Angel Delgadillo's Barber Shop. Are you aware that Angel was the main force in getting the Route 66 Assn in Arizona going? It was due in part to his work, that other states soon followed suit and Route 66 associations began forming for the express purpose of restoring the wayside wonders and keeping this important piece of American highway history alive. Seligman and Route 66 is what it is today due to the work Angel put into this effort.
