ROAD TRIP MEMORIES!
We pulled into a popular motel along Route
1 in Main Tuesday night. We'll have to be up
early to catch the ferry boat to Vinalhaven Island.
This particular motel, Moody's, brings back
memories of travel with my Mom and Dad when
motels started to spring up across our country.
These days travelers expect to fund a Holiday
Inn with swimming pools and work out rooms.
Perhaps even a continental breakfast. Moody's,
which opened in 1927, features a row of cabins
with beds, a bathroom/shower, a heater, and
a modern TV and microwave. Of course the
old motels, which also featured individual
cabins, didn't always have television as an
option. And microwaves were a thing of
science fiction in those days. No. No workout
room or pool here. But something must be
woking out for them. There's a "No Vacancy
Sign" most every night. And, this is their 95th
season!!! Hope you'll stop by sometime and
that all your NEWS is good!
