Wednesday morning called for tours of the several museums in downtown Kingman. The Mohave County museum contains lots of historical materials related to the mining once prevalent in the area. The old Powerhouse Museum contains artifacts and history of Route 66.

KOA provided a rec room for our use and we made good use of the facilities with the evening group meals. Based on Shirley’s Famous Chilli, there were plenty of go-withs for everybody to have their fill and do it all over again on Thursday evening!

Thursday involved a trek to the "ghost" town of Oatman. Wild burros walk the streets all day begging for food. Fortunately every shop along the street sells bags of carrots to feed the wiley animals. The twisty section of Route 66 that leads to town from Kingman provides a white knuckle experience for the timid mountain driver.

Friday brought an early rise and a call to travel the opposite direction on the "Mother Road". About 65 miles east to Grand Cavern Caverns. Our hosts had arranged for a guided group tour of this huge cave. After an elevator ride down some 10 stories, the cave spilled out in chamber after chamber of eye candy. Two new member couples joined us for their first club camping experience. The Kirwans and the Wallaces were reported to have enjoyed the experience and plan to join us again very soon.
