The Riderettes dine out each Wednesday at 11:00 am at a differant location. This was a first time at Kingman’s newest Italian Restaurant, Lombardi’s. The lunch menu was considerable. Everyone enjoyed their lunch. You should try it the next time you are in town. The atmosphere is definately Italian. There is a bar for those who wish to imbibe. Here is a short video made while having an early lunch. Lombardi\’s

Route 66 was the Mother Road in the 1930’s and it is still very popular world wide. Many movies were made about the people who traveled this route. The most popular was “Grapes Of Wrath” written by John Steinbeck and directed by John Ford starring Henry Fonda. Just recently A Plus Productions filming on Rt. 66 came through Kingman and invited the Route 66 Riders Motorcycle Club to particpate in a short video. Our club members were happy to accomadate. We met at the Powerhouse Visiter Center in Kingman and everyone had fun with the taping. I went down with my little video camera to record the proceedings. Here are the results with a little narrating With nothing better to do I took the still photos I I wook with my Nikon D-40 and made a still video with Rt. 66 music by the group called “Asleep At The Wheel. The music is nice. Take a look for yourself

I have been on a similar ride with family and with Steven, our son, when we made a fly in trip to Bryce Canyon. The scenery through Bryce Canyon is breath taking. I have watched this slide show several times and I am still awed by the beauty of the country. Living in this part of the country is only what others wish for. As a bonus I have made a video with music and some sound effects, so just sit back and enjoy the scenery. The video is 20 minutes long. Bryce and Page AZ
