Our last road trip took us past this very cool old

Our last road trip took us past this very cool old gas station in Bountiful, CO, about which we can find no information. We’re even struggling to find out anything about Bountiful (which admittedly we’d never heard of until this station caught our eye), except that it was most likely a stop on the Rio Grande Western Railroad between La Jara and Antonito in the 1880s; and up until its parent company filed for bankruptcy a few months ago, it was still possible to ride this stretch of tracks on the San Luis and Rio Grande Railroad. Whether or not it survives remains to be seen. #ipulledoverforthis #colorfulcolorado #abandonedplaces #tinsheets

It’s a Mother’s Day #SignSunday on the Mother Road. The Cowboy Motel in Amarillo, TX was most likely opened in the 40s when Route 66 passed through town, with its sign installed in 1963. There was once neon, which was removed long ago, but the sign has been maintained and repainted in recent years and the very cool Googie-style stars remain untouched. #motherroad #route66 #vintagesign #tinsheets
