I'm Chris, and I spent my childhood living in a motel my family owned in the southwest. This blog is a paean to the joys of the road -- the accommodations, the eating, the exploring, and, sometimes, the cringing.

MY OLD HOUSE

Postcard of the TraveLodge in Alamogordo, NM, circa 1976. The back of the card reads: "In the morning shadow of the beautiful Sacramento Mountains. Direct dial phones, T.V., refrigerated air-conditioning, heated pool, free reservation service and free coffee in the lobby." It's like a motel haiku.

My wife Alysia is more classy, and blogs about the hotels she grew up in, as well as hotel culture in general. (Yes, we are the Hart-To-Hart of lodging bloggery.) Visit her website at Hotel Me More...
