I was on my way out of Missoula Montana and I needed to fill up my gas tank. I stopped at a gas station across the street from this motel. The sign caught my eye right away and I knew I had to get a picture. I am sure that sign must look awesome at night! Next time I’m down in Missoula I am definitely going to make a point to get over there at night and shoot another photo of that awesome sign.
Thanks for stopping by, Rob
I love the Thunder Bird! Our son went to college right across the river.
Oh nice! Looks like a pretty wicked school 🙂
He left the midwest to go there and he loved it so much, he still lives in Missoula. Doesn’t use the degree he got there, but he found the place he was meant to be.
Oh that’s wonderful. And not using his degree hey, seems rather common haha.
Very common these days.
Free Wi-Fi too, I bet! Ha! We were there this time last year but running from the wildfires, so to speak.
Haha ya I would hope so! That’s cool you were out there though. I like it there. Cool little town :).

The colors in THUNDERBIRD are striking … and the photo evokes memories of places from the late 50s / early 60s. Nice.
Thunder Bird’s the word!
Very nostalgic for me. The car, the drive-in restaurant where they clipped your tray onto the window of the car. OMG! I could be as old as Missoula! 😳
LOL your hilarious! But yes, I love the nostalgic feel of this photo too. I wasn’t around for all that stuff you mentioned, but I wish I was, because I love that kind of stuff :).
We all get to have nostalgic pillars of memory, as we age. Here’s a big one about me, actually….. You will love it! It’s called “Resa and the Rock Star”. It’s based on a pic of me and Carmine Appice (We’re so young and gorgeous!) from 1988. It was on the first movie I ever designed the costumes for. He is/was a famous drummer. I hope you check it out! -Resa ❦
Oh no way, thats awesome. I’m gonna look it up for sure!
