Description
The Lays Motor Lodge used to be a popular place for folks to stay on their trip across Missouri back in the '50's and '60's. I am not sure when it closed it's doors...but from the looks of things it must have been around 35 years ago.
ISO 400, 1/50 sec, f11, 35mm.
Update November 2023: I have not stopped by here for probably a year...and now that I have returned I see that the old Motor Lodge is completely gone and no trace of it or the old sign remain. Just a wisp of memory like smoke on the wind.

A fantastic find. Great capture! fav

Thanks, Lynn. I have known about it for a couple years, and I stop by once in a while but it is a difficult place to capture with the contrast from daylight and usually an overcast day is the only way to get a good image. This one worked well.
