What year did you take this picture? I am just surprised to see 3 vintage cars parked outside at once.

This photo was taken last year (2014).Ā But those classic cars are part of a collection owned by the motel.Ā They don't belong to guests. . .

Yes, I've been dying to see that place for years!Ā This style of roadside lodging became very popular in the US from the late 1940s through the mid-1970s, and now it's making a comeback! Ā One of the housekeepers let me look inside one of the "tepees," and they are a little bigger than you might think!

Yes, it would be interesting!Ā And since you're a "village girl" you would handle it better than some downtown London girl!

Indeed. Xd I'm used to open fields and open spaces, as well as landscape. Lots of buildings overwhelm me. XDĀ

Wow, this looks really interesting! I love vintage cars, and with this setting, looks like a scene from an 50's movie

Y -
That's exactly the vibe the owners of the motel are going for (actually, I think that there are 4 of them in the US)!
