Williams, Arizona

Williams is a small town about an hour south of the Grand Canyon. For many years the town depended on business from travelers on the famous Route 66. It was the last town on Route 66 that Interstate 40 bypassed, effectively killing the economy here. Now that Route 66 is a tourist attraction, there is tourist business. Two days after we were here, it snowed 3 inches here!

Funny scene at an antique store. The two skeletons in this old car are holding a sign that reads “Original owners”!
