Once upon a time this hotel must have been a hopping place, judging by the three stall outhouse, out back. That time is no more, as evidenced by this information.

Time worn and battered by the elements, this store is just going to fall apart and melt into the earth. Note the great carvings, left and right. Found in South Dakota.

An old garage with windows that have been shot to hell. The sign did not help.
