Impressions: Artesia, New Mexico

I just recently drove through Artesia, New Mexico, during the afternoon, and then coming home (back to Tejas), as the day began.

    That Starlite Motel sign is super swell! Love it and the turquoise trim on the building.

    So evocative of a bygone era. Sure, neon elements would have been even more awesome, but it's still super swell, as you say.
