Photo 69-MWA-15 from 1969

Comments

Can't quite make out this motel name. Probably the 20 Mile Motel judging by the restaurant in photo 13.

Take another look at it; to me it looks like it starts with 20 instead of a cursive W; maybe the 20 Mile Motel??

It could well be, Goz! The 20 Mile Restaurant & Bar is photo 13. I'll change my comment.

This was probably the Rachel & Phil's motel. they sponsored my first D league team and the ballfield was where larosa's/sonic sits today. It was a handful of years before 1969 when they sponsored our D league team. Our team was coached by Mr. Earl Testerman (father of Jim, Don & Ed) and assistant coach was Mr. Jack Hacker (father of Cathy, Dave, Bobby and Robbie).

This was for sure Rachel & Phil's motel (same as pic 14 from a different angle).
