1956 neon sign at the Siesta Motel in Durango. While these old beauty is well-preserved, other #AtomicAge and #Googie signs are being removed. In fact, I just learned that some of these signs I photographed or sketched in Las Vegas a few years ago are now gone.

Trump demeaned an American hero by falsely claiming he hurt Americans. In fact, Trump has incited the deaths of more Americans than any other American since Jefferson Davis. #robertmueller notesfromtheroad.com/roam/trump-vio…
