Another of those tacky motels that appeared across America. This one is in Gila Bend, Arizona (pronounced Hee-La) This motel is southwest of Phoenix on the way to Mexico and took its que from the popularity of the space craze in the early sixties. The hotel was shut down for many years and recently renovated and is even tackier. I wasn't aware that it had been renovated until I went looking for pics of it in the 60's. I drove by this area a few years ago and it was abandoned.

As the Space Age Lodge now appears. Google it for some wacky pics of its inside. There is now a large UFO sitting on top of the place and the lobby is...well, look for yourself when you google it. It's a regular riot. Hummm, I wonder if my wife would like to stay there on our wedding anniversary????
