Signal on Route 66, Holbrook, AZ. Cherished for its roadside Americana charm, Holbrook, AZ, sits within the Painted Desert. From the whitewashed concrete and steel teepees in the Wigwam Village on Route 66, to the downtown courthouse visitor’s center which introduces you to other historical sites like the Bucket of Blood Saloon and the Blevins House, where a shootout between the gangsters and the sheriff occurred, the history of the people is more than matched by the geological wonders here, including the Petrified Forest.
