What a great old building, can't believe that it is boarded up!
Love your POV on the 1st, nice work!

Maybe we can stay there for the photo shoot? That might get Chiller down to Texas.

It was a favored hangout for many Movie Stars in the 40's and 50's. Even Bonnie and Clyde stayed here! Lucy, Marilyn, Roy and Dale, Will Rodgers, The 3 Stooges, just to name a few!
They came here for the Mineral Water that comes from the local wells.
