Well it's a sad day for South Winnipegers that love nostalgia and old gems. A few weeks ago a fence went up around the Palomino Plains Motor Inn. This hotel has been around since my parents moved to Winnipeg in the early 70's. In fact I would venture to say it was around since the 50's, though I don't know that for sure. Looks like it's going to become a piece of our distant history. I had always thought about renting a room there to get some shots of the inside, but it looks like I've missed my opportunity.
Lets have a moment of silence for the Palomino Plains Motor Inn......

Maybe it's time for some urban exploration... jump the fence!
PS, here's a pic of the place I took last summer...
