OK Corral: Setting the Record Straight with Ike Clanton
Foster Braun posted a blog entry in American Road Trip Talk
Click here to listen… Click here to download. In the winter of 2018, American Road Magazine published a 15th Anniversary issue of the magazine to highlight the special people and places we have visited during those years. One of our favorites was Terry “Ike” Clanton, a descendant of one of the cowboys cut down in the infamous battle of the OK Corral. The story has always been seen as a paean to Old West rough justice where retribution was swift and final. "Not so!" says Terry Clanton. So we invite you to listen to a very different side of the story…what famous announcer Paul Harvey used to call…the rest of the story. Here is Terry Clanton in an interview from 2017. You can read more details in vol. 15, num. 4 of American Road Magazine. ******************************* OK Corral Podcast Final.mp3 -

Rod's Steakhouse on Route 66 in Williams AZ. Route 66 runs through Kingman on two different roads, one east one west. I guess they have problems with people heading the wrong way hence the warning on the lower sign here. -

Painted Desert/Petrified Forest National Park on Route 66 in AZ. These telephone poles show where an older alignment of Route 66 ran through here many years ago. The road has been reclaimed by the desert, but the poles remain. -

Oatman Arizona is an old Minign town that was on one of the earliest alignments of route 66. Eventually the town dried up and was abandoned. The mules used by the miner were left there, and over the last 3/4 of a century of so have become indiginouse to the area. They now wander in and out of town on their own and love to be fed carots by the tourists. Oatman has also enjoyed a rebirth as a little tourist town along with the rebirth of Route 66. The ride down old Route 66 from Oatman heading west towards Cool Springs through Sitgrieves Pass is 9 miles long, with over 100 switchbacks and hair pin turns, and most of that without any shoulder or guarrails. made for a really interesting ride on the Harleys. -
