at dusk.

Welcome
to Stovall's Apollo Inn. While here, dine in our coffee shop then
take the shuttle over to Disneyland.
Although this extension of Disneyland's Tomorrowland is no more, there's
still Stovall's Space Age Lodge in Gila Bend, AZ.

The Cosmic Age Lodge was another Best Western motel nearby
Disneyland. This lodge reflected the old era around Disneyland when theme
park signage and flashy space age names were all the rage.

The Anchor Motel still features its themed sign with an anchor
on it. This tri colored sign is still an eye-catcher here in Orange County.
This marquee once had a different look to it, back when the motel was
first established.

When it comes to marquees, there are few better than the Silver
Moon Motel in Anaheim, CA. With its sign depicting a grinning "silver"
moon and large neon lettering, the Silver Moon is a Beach Boulevard landmark.
At least until the bulldozer got to it in 2002.
Many thanks to Karen and others for original alert
on the Silver Moon demolition.
