"Dixie Neon" would be a good name for a band.

Found these old postcards online from the Town Motel I posted the other day.

Opened in 1934 and now closing its doors.

The sign appears to be 1960s vintage.

⇧ Cool sign, shame it's closing after all those years.

Jim-Denny's #2. I ate there many times back in the mid-80s when I was working on the Governors' Mansion. Jim Van Nort, one of the two founders, was still behind the grill then. Only has eight stools inside. You could find State Senators from the nearby Capitol Building seated next to bums from Alkali Flats. The burgers were that good and cheap.

I understand it's still open for business.

When I was a kid, if I had a penny for every time I saw this sign I'd be a millionaire.

Well, you should have followed Jesus' example and saved your pennies!

There wasn't a weekend that me and my parents didn't hit Kiddie Land. Long gone

Ah yes how true, but Moses invests.

My parents brought me here to get freshly baked cookies. You'd be able to buy their broken ones. Funny, but they tasted just as good as the unbroken ones.

A great place to buy furniture at a great price.
