Day 114 Prescott, AZ-Interstate 40 EB Milepost 23, Yucca, AZ

Breakfast at Waffles and More. Guess what we ordered?  Phil gave us a tour of Prescott, the hiking areas around town and his new shop.  Phil demonstrated how his light weight backpacking stove works. The whole cook set only weighs 5oz.  It's made from an aluminum soda can.  After we said our goodbyes, we headed down Route 66. Along the route was Ash Fork, AZ. Ash Fork has proclaimed itself "The Flagstone Capital of the World", due to the large number of stone quarries and stone yards in and around the town. During its history, the town has had several fires destroying most of the buildings thus not much exist in the town anymore. I guess calling themselves the flagstone capital gives a nice spin to a dying town along Route 66.  From there the highway was a pleasant two lane road in the desert until we reached Kingman, AZ.  Kingman was a different story-lots of people and traffic.  It was getting late so decided to stop at rest stop however it was closed in our direction of travel but across the highway it was open. So turned around at next exit to get back to the eastbound rest stop. Always turning around and heading in the opposite direction, you'd think we weren't ready to go home. We do like our nomadic lifestyle, however we do want to get back home to see family and friends. So tomorrow, we will return to our westward journey.
