    I don't think it's the same building - the set-back's all different. It's part of the motel though.

    Reminds me of those cartoon photos "what things are different in these photos ?"
    The biggest difference is the building on left has been rebuilt. Those AC's sure look close to the curb. Looks like the same trees and transformer. Need more pictures like these.
    KK get your camera and start cruising. It'll keep you out of trouble and you may find the wagon of your dreams in the next motel lot.

    I thought that the motel looked a bit more cared for in the original picture in terms of the minimal but nicely done landscaping and choice of colors. I noticed the big spruce trees out back are gone.

    They could redo it to the original look and call it the Relapse Inn

    Great picture KK. Enjoyed seeing that.

    Disneyland Hotel, I'm guessing around 1957, since that's a '56 Ford.
