Found fall color in Flagstaff. Nice town. Headed west on old 66. We went through Williams, Seligman, Peach Springs, Hackberry, and into Kingman. And, most exciting of all, just outside of Seligman, we found Burma Shave signs! We filled out our passport and received our free gifts in Kingman -- a keychain and refrigerator magnet. They even threw in some post cards. Oatman (west of here) is the only town left, but it's a windy road up a mountain with no guard ...
