115/365 Kingman


A few final random pictures from the weekend. The locomotive is the centerpiece of the main town park.
Dan saw this house as an oasis in the desert and had to stop for the pic.



We had dinner at the classic Mr. D'z on Route 66, right in the heart of Kingman - the typical retro diner ..... and good food too. Dan had the root beer and said it was delish! Guess they make their own. We'll be sure to take you all there when you visit!
(Thanks for the tip Pat)

86/365 Kingman


We went to Kingman Saturday to explore and see if we could find a house to rent. Dan made 6 appointments and believe it or not, we actually found a house. We may be moving as early as this weekend (4/12) but if not, next weekend for sure.

Here's a 'mural' I found painted on an antique store downtown.




Dan's new office: Frontier Communications! Yes, it looks like a neighborhood post office. It's out in the sticks, all by itself, surrounded by cows and desert.

This is what Kingman looks like from almost anywhere. Flat surrounded by mountains. 1-story houses. Desert. An occasional rock cluster or hill. This was taken from in front of Dan's office.
I checked - no Barnes & Noble, no Borders, no Costco, no Michaels, no Penneys or any mall-type stores. OMG!
