This is such a cool picture. The lighting and colors are awesome. And the flare at the top definitely adds something extra.

Thanks, all! I adore old retro signs from days gone by – glad you all do, too!

Reminds me of traveling by car all around the US in the summers as a little girl. My sister and I got so excited when it was time to look for a motel. Great sign- wonderful colors

Thanks! I pass this sign every time I drive on Hwy. 99 on the way to see my mom. I was always dying to pull off the road and snap some shots – and one day I did. I love this old sign.

Thanks, Angela! :-) I just LOVE this sign. I pass it on the way to see my mom and every time I swear I swerve a little because my eyes are on the sign instead of the road LOL!
