Great night shot of this old motel. I wouldn't think they'd have to advertise TV these days. V.

Wonderful mix of lights. (I googled refrigerated air and found out it is different from other kinds of air conditioning technology. Luckily we don't need any of it where I live.)

When I graduated from High School my mom and I drove from Napa to Dalhart, TX, in the panhandle. We went through all the little towns and attractions along Route 66 (Prairie Dog Village, anyone?). It's sad that a good deal of it is gone now. Thanks for the memories! V
