AMBOY, CA

Flying from Utah to Arizona over the grand canyon and then on to Amboy California for a Fly-in. We have a little breakfast in Quartzite Arizona and at our breakfast spot in the desert. Please like the video if you enjoyed it so other can see it. I have another video almost done from a recent off airport fight and hike into a slot canyon.

Please hit 'like' and subscribe! Diane and I take the 1948 Ercoupe on a 1200 mile trip to the Mohave desert. We land at a small dirt strip at Amboy, a 1950's motel/gas station in near Amboy crater. Fuel stops KMPI (Mariposa), KTSP (Tehachapi) and KTNP (Twentynine Palms) airports. Music by Francis Preve, with thanks! #ercoupe #desert #backcountry #amboy

Diane and I took the Ercoupe to a fly-in at Amboy on Route 66. In this episode, we land on the dirt strip at Amboy, and enjoy the fly-in. We are surprised to find our Ercoupe on all the merchandise! ATC communications, some air sickness for Diane, and avoiding the numerous military restricted areas.

Not a paid promotion (although we did get a free shirt!), but you can buy the Ercoupe t-shirts https://shop.visitamboy.com.

I've stopped in Amboy California, along old route 66, check out what I captured.

A long, long train goes by in Amboy, California

A recently restored airstrip near the town of Johannesburg, CA. Thanks to the Recreational Aviation Foundation for working to restore this strip. Airstrip is located on BLM land and administered by the BLM.

Wierd! So where's the runway? How did the plane get there? Was it running out of gas and used old route 66 as a runway to land? Not aware of any runways nearby. We're talking Amboy, CA. Nothing much out there. Not every day you have to wait your turn to gas up your car behind a plane....lol

In part 2 of exploring Amboy, California, we’ll explore the abandoned church of St. Raymond. Situated next to Amboy Crater and Roy’s Café and Motel is the beautiful St. Raymond’s Church.

At first glance, the church seems like any other church, but upon close examination, you can easily determine that the church has fallen victim to neglect. A visit here is warranted by anyone making the famous Route 66 cross country road trip, in addition to Roy’s Motel and Café. Exploring the abandoned church will take you back in time although you can tell that they have been doing some restoration.

In the second of a three-part series, we’ll take an in depth look in an attempt to explore and discover what happened to this beautiful little church; although, I have to admit that St. Raymond’s is a bit of a creepy church inside. Some might say that it’s even haunted. This small little town is loaded with relics waiting to be explored.

Definitely make it a point to stop in the ghost town of Amboy, California, the next time you decide to do a rt. 66 road trip to Southern California. In the meantime, please come along and explore with us as we make a travel blog about the beautifully abandoned church of St. Raymond.

We explore the abandoned hotel rooms of Roy's Cafe in Amboy, CA (soon to be reopened by a new owner!) on our way to Joshua Tree California to do some work on a tiny house build. While there we also check out the abandoned Amboy School- which was used until 1999.
