  3. I can't think where that one is though I feel like I have been by it. Years ago Rt 60 was a major route with lots of trucks and a thriving truck stop was situated where Rt 42 and 60 came together and the place was called the Triangle. It reminds me of that area.

  5. I like Dicky Bird's comment - Bates Motel? Looks like it is now a parking lot for other vehicles.

  6. Nice find Tanya! This place reminds me of the old motels we used to stay in when we would go on vacation when I was a kid. They seemed much nicer back then!

  7. The place could use a new coat of paint. It does feel quite similar to motels we'll see in quiet places up here.

  9. Lots to look at here, I wonder if it is even open. a relic from the past for sure. And look at the covered up sign, it advertises T.V. So just having a T.V. must have been a big thing back then!
