Well, I'm standing on a corner
In Winslow, Arizona,
And such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my lord, in a flatbed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me

This is the painting on a brick wall at the corner which was made so famous. This is the only wall left standing as the building burned down a few years ago. There is a plan to rebuild and they have saved this wall. The painting really is quite good.

Winslow is typical of most towns in America. If you look a little, you can find beautiful older buildings that are a reflection of our past. This is on the main street coming into town and is an example of one of the many older churches this country has managed to keep and maintain.

The La Posada Hotel is a major landmark in Winslow. This view is actually from the back and this is what you would see if you arrived by train as you would have back in its hayday. Many famous people have stayed here including Gary Cooper and Will Rogers. There has been a major restoration of this property which is just about finished. If you ever get to Winslow, plan on staying here. But be sure to make reservations well in advanced. They are booked several months ahead.
