The Commodore Motel at 37th and Seawall Blvd in Galveston, Texas. Ain't she a beauty? I think this is from one of our family's vacations. I found it in my parents' papers. I hope my mom will comment: I think this may have been where we were when Elvis died. Wherever we were, it was near a seawall. And you don't get much closer than seawall boulevard! All our family vacations included motels like this, though. Didn't yours? I can taste the ice and see the room decor. Turquoise and orange? You know it! The motels and their pools were so exciting after a day of drawing lines down the middle of the bench back seat of the Pontiac and hoping we were almost there!
