In this episode of the Route 66 Adventure we are in Needles, the gateway to California. Generally speaking, there is a relationship of population and Route 66. Smaller towns are more enthusiastic the larger cities; Eastern California is more enthusiastic then western California, perhaps the reason is their commerce is way less dependent on old road tourism. Needles is eastern California and they love the Old road. Louis Bravo starts this segment with the iconic Palm cottages, then Richard Wilde. the previous owner of the Palm Cottages provided even more history. next stop is the Palo Verde College with Jerry Louis. Linda Fitzpatrick, our guide, gave a little history about their Masonic Hall. The El Garces Hotel, another Harvey House Station, is where we met Dora Taylor, an original Harvey girl of long ago, and she shares history and shows us some relics.
