This morning @CC268, his dad and I met up at P23 for breakfast. It's a short walk from the airport into Seligman, a small town on old Route 66, population 456. Lilo's Cafe serves a good meal at a reasonable price, and has a cool assortment of Route 66-themed T-shirts and other souvenir merchandise for sale. Good times! :)

We left, though, without answering the pressing question: Is it "SELL-ig-man", or "Se-LIGG-man" ... ? :confused:

Trivia: John Lasseter, writer of the Pixar movie Cars, told an interviewer that the town of Radiator Springs in the film was based on Seligman AZ. :D



Yeah, I was surprised at how green it was up there.

I think I knew that...or heard that at some point. I love the Cars movies!
 
Went to the ‘Roadkill Cafe’ there years back. Is that still there or is it this place with a name change?

I think that was the place right across the street from Lilos where we ate
 
Further east down the street there’s a souvenir shop with a C-172N tail sticking up out of the roof. I checked the NTSB website, and sure enough, it was in a fatal box-canyon wreck about ten years ago. :(
