We always stayed in Tucumcari in the 1960's. It was a perfect one day drive from Los Angeles heading east. Maybe that's why there were so many motels. I even recognized some of them still standing in the first minute of this video. I was little, of course, and Mom always had to "inspect" the room first before she would decide to stay at a motel. After it made inspection and she didn't smell gas (another story) we would go pay for the room!

I did this trip a few weeks ago from Oklahoma through to Albuquerque then Gallup, NM on The Mother Road. Sure wish I'd paid more attention to these museums. Thanks, Russ!

The best breakfast I ever had was in New Mexico. An omlet with the best chili peppers I ever tasted.

Tucumcari was the main inspiration for the movie, "cars", I was just reading. There were others but because of the hotels, restaurants etc, ..along the strip, it was the main one. The museum had plenty of 60's cars but only one lone neon sign. I guess they're rare or long gone? For me, as kid going through there in the 60's, the neon was one of the best parts. You could see the glow for miles. Some motels were literally wrapped in neon and there would be some sort of animated signage out front. I loved that stuff. They didn't look as magical after the sun came up but it was was ok because some of them had pools and pools back then were a big deal for kids coming from places where they weren't that common. Another good one here Russ. Perfect timing too. It's as if a switch was just flipped. Temps dropped all across the west last couple days. Cheers. 👍

Blue swallow motel is a great stop at night. Tucumcari has dinosaur museum. Used to change my kids in Santa Rosa
KOA was nice and blue hole diving and swimming park is neat. I was amazed at bunkers just east of Albuquerque on Southside od forty that stored ammunition for military.
