About 40 years ago I took my young son for a father/son weekend of fishing in Crescent City FL. The city brags that it is
"The Bass Capital of the World". We stayed in the only motel in town...plain but clean with a convenient outside sink for
cleaning an gutting the day's catch. Can't remember the name of the place, though.
My son now has sons that he takes fishing, so I went a little out of my way on a trip and went to Crescent City. According
to a long-time local resident I talked to, the motel burned down about 20 years ago. He told me where it had been, so I
went there and took the photo on the left to show my son.
With some Photoshop help, I added a panel on this sign in the photo on the right so the motel can be named again.
Anyone who would like to is invited to download right-hand photo and add a motel name/design and re-post it here.
Or, suggest names for the motel.

Sorry, deleted post. My bad. Tried to be funny, and failed.

Bad? I'll be the judge of that. You can send it by message.

I think the vacancy sign looks better
