Gage,
Glad to hear you got home safe.
That's where we went to after Oatman. Eddie wanted to get there before they closed, which we managed to do with just a little time to spare, so he could ask permission to stay there for the night.
It was windy there too, fortunately the building blocked most of the wind but the flags were flapping all night like mad. We were able to cook dinner right by the building and they have a picnic table and some places to sit right by front door.
I really enjoyed Cool Springs, it is a neat little store with a small museum. Since the owner was kind to let us camp there we could afford to go shopping in the morning.
They sell some very nice things and I would say the nicest of the shops along Route 66 that I stopped at IMHO.
I would enjoy stopping there again some time.
