This is a photo of the Wigwam Motel in Holbrooke, Arizona. If anyone saw the movie “Cars” I am pretty sure that the Cozy Cone Motel is based on the Wigwam Motel. I have never stayed in this motel but would like to next time I go to The Petrified Forest.

2007-05-01 04:31Wigwams? Tippis? I saw them both today. Wow. Native American Day. I never saw a motel made like this before and it must have been an interesting visit. I surely would like a tour of that place. Nice.
My Theme Day portrait is of the “Peashooter” and the National Museum of the United States Air Force. Hope you like flying.

2007-05-01 13:15Great shot! I love kitsch, so I’d love to stay here! Having grown up with Indians in Oklahoma and Texas, this kind of teepee is too funny to me! Happy Theme Day from Maui, Hawaii!
