Motel welcome sign, Tetonia, Idaho, 2010

Tetonia, a town of only 250 people, is located within sight of the Grand Teton Range (on a clear day). We stayed at one of its vintage motels, which featured a cowboy welcome sign out front. I photographed the back of it at dusk, waving to no one in particular.

Well said -- it was made as we worked our way back towards Boise, and the sign's gesture could just as well be a farewell as welcome.

And it was a farewell for our trip.
