Signs of Tucson
The signs you expect, the perspectives you don't.

Benson Highway
I had to give a presentation with Tucson Embedded, they're near the airport, and I found some really interesting signs near there.
Found this car wash right beside a Circle K, where I got some gum.
This hotel was on a lonely stretch of road along the Benson Highway.
This derelict sign is a edifice of our consumerist, post-modern, culture.

4th ave, near I-10
Took some pictures of signs near the South side of Tucson.
Although you can't see it, this sign used to say "mobile service station."
The letters didn't fall off as they did melt on.
This sign used to say, "Old Spanish Trail," but the only part that remains is trail.

Motels of Miracle Mile
Here is my long anticipated post of Motels of Miracle Mile
It appears that they did a lot of renovation at the Ghost Ranch, unfortunately, it seems to have lost much of its soul.
Even though this wasn't a motel per-se, it was in the same strip and had many of the stylistic conventions of the other signs along Miracle Mile.
