Ah, he has a shot of "Arne's Royal Hawaiian Motel". For many years this was the only place to stay in Baker, California, if you had the misfortune of your vehicle breaking down on the locally-infamous Baker Grade, usually in the 125° heat. It had that Bates Motel vibe.

The Do Drop Inn was a fixture in Lenwood, CA way back when I lived in California over 25 years ago!

That is a pretty cool collection of every day roadside southwestern buildings for sure.
I loved the ideas here.
