    One of the nicest things about traveling in your own RV is: you always get your own comfy mattress, pillow, and blankets every night. Back to da van for Russ.

    I love Arizona. I love the coffered ceilings in the museum. You don't see coffered ceilings much anymore except in luxury homes it takes a real craftsman to do them.

    45 years ago I planned a 3 week vacation from Ohio to California and back. I saw the Wig Wam Motel but stayed at Motel 6. Tom Bodet was in charge then- $19.95. There was suppose to have been 2 more locations of the Wig Wam motels also. All the attractions and towns have grown up since I was there. The prices to visit them was " much" cheaper then. Glad that you stayed in the tee pee. Always wondered what is was like. Preserving History.👍👍. Saw the Painted Desert and many more attractions. Seemed nice to visit again with you. Thanks Russ. 🤗🤗

      That's totally cool john, I love memories like this. Especially since I remember WHY it was called motel 6! As in...6$ dollars!!! I was lucky enough to take this route every summer till I was 18, when everyone started to die off or move. Phoenix to Columbus. Russ has me getting ready to Go again soon.

    I remember staying at the Wigwam with my family on our vacation to the Grand Csnyon, Petrified Forest and Painted Desert. The antique car parked out front was my dad's brand spanking new salmon pink 1960 Chevy Belair! We 3 little girls were thrilled to stay in a tepee! Wonderful memories.! 😊 Thanks for another great video.

    Wow, what an incredible adventure! Seeing the Painted Desert and learning about the historic Route 66 is just breathtaking! The blend of nature, history, and those iconic landmarks like the Wigwam Motel makes me want to pack my bags and head out there. The old courthouse and jail in Holbrook have so much character, it's like stepping back in time. And the local museum, filled with petrified wood and stories of the past, sounds like a hidden gem! Thanks for sharing this, Russy R TV - can't wait to see your next stop!

    Stopped in holbrook 1967 coming from CA,....from the Williams/Flagstaff direction going to Florida on a cross-country trip in our new vw beetle. I have faded memories of it but I do remember stopping there to get gas and eat at a diner before heading on to the petrified forest. That and the roadrunner semi trucks parked near our beetle with the big road runner bird painted on them. As a kid I thought that was cool. I guess that means I40 wasn't a thing yet in that section? We never got to stay at a wig-wam but I'd seen others and wondered what was in the top of the teepee? LOL. Another good one here. Cheers. 👍

    Howdy Russ, it's good to be back on Rt 66! Sleeping in a Wigwam, how cool is that? I As always, the local museum is absolutely worth checking out. At the Meteor Crater I remember when they used to let you hike the trail around the rim for free -- I guess they charge for that now. See you next time!

    Russ could you please when releasing videos from your past completed trips state on the thumbnail or in the description when the video was shot? Say the month and year or at the very least the year. This would help to alleviate confusion as to when the trip was taken. You have taken many trips over the years and in some cases you have gone to the same areas multiple times. As an example was this video from your recent summer travel, since the summer trip, or some other time? Thanks.

      @@tjadventures9163 I can and have already “assumed” that but going forward Russ can make it easier by simply stating when a PAST video was shot. There’s a comment by someone else on this video stating that they thought Russ was done on his trip not knowing that the video was shot earlier on the 2024 Summer Trip. Back when he was in Oregon earlier on the trip a comment was made that they thought he was just in the area (Oregon) a year ago. What they were watching a year ago was Russ had re-released a longer combined video of a trip he took in 2019. Simply stating on that video that it was shot in 2019 would have eliminated that confusion. My point to Russ is, you’re releasing videos out of sequence. Make it clear when the video was shot. Not just titled “Epic/Historic Road Trip Through The Columbia River”. How difficult is it to add “July 2024”?
