Relaxin' in Williams, AZ

August 16, 2010.
The last few days have been relatively uneventful. We've had cool nights and warms days. The last couple of days have been in the upper 80's which has created a real temptation to turn on the A/C. However, I'm still leery of the minimal voltage i.e. 112-114 volts as indicated on my meter.
The other day we drove back to Flagstaff and visited their mall. Flagstaff is a small city in my estimation. It does seem to have most of the major stores that we grew accustomed to in the Tampa Bay area. Overall, I like the Flagstaff area. We also stopped at the new Camping World on I-40, but weren't tempted to buy anything.
Williams had a car show over the weekend, so we checked out the old cars lined up on Main Street (Rte 66). Folks said it was smaller than years past, possibly affected by the economy. This is a era original gas station on main street that has been restored.

Saturday evening we rode our bicycles into town and had dinner. 
The food at the Pine Country Restaurant was average and not expensive. There sure doesn't seem to be a shortage of tourists in Williams. A good percentage seem to be European.
We've only been here close to two weeks about halfway through our paid month, but we are getting "hitch itch" (the desire to move on). 
We'll keep you posted!

  1. If you get back over to the Flagstaff area, check out the old town part, kinda touristy but you'll find some good eateries a few blocks in and some good Micro Breweries.
