Needles, California

Leaving Williams we travelled down I40 to Needles, California.   As we’ve never been to Needles before, we decided to stay for a couple of nights.
 
When we left Williams it was a lovely mid 70’s morning, when we arrived in Needles it was 102F!   That was a bit of a shock to the system to say the least!
 
We took a trip into town to have a look at what was once El Garces Hotel and a Harvey House, it’s a beautiful building and is currently in the process of renovation.

Renovations taking place at the entrance from the train tracks.

 As the hotel looks on the platform.

I particularly liked this seat, representing three things that make the town unique, The Needles, the Colorado River and Route 66.

Have fun, we are!
