1/18

Rt 66 in Kingman is also known as Andy Devine Highway. I heard that Andy was from Kingman. Drove to Henderson yesterday and passed a vehicle with a sticker: vaginaterian. I think it was Mencken who said that no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.

First order of business was a stop at the Acura dealership for an oil change. Service dept was busy, but we did not see anyone who appeared to be a potential buyer.

We stopped by Hoover Dam which was quite crowded. We speculated that the multitudes were celebrating MLK day by going to the dam, which was confirmed by our return trip today. Lots of walking, but very impressive and well worth the visit. Also impressive was the bridge crossing the canyon a little down river, in sight of the dam. It was completed recently, and named for Pat Tillman.

We had breakfast at a restaurant visited by Guy Fieri, of Diners, Drive-Ins, etc. Very good.
