Gleaning Facebook: Recycled Sign?

Sheila Matthews Shaw suggests this motel as a setting for Raymond Atkins's next novel. We know nothing, but do you suppose somebody lost a Scottish Inns franchise and -- with a dollar store brush, a bit of black-out paint, and a long ladder -- improvised to avoid the expense of a new sign?

How about 'Tis Inn.


David Matheny
They would charge 'by the 1/2 hour".....

Be sure to come hear some stories at Schroeder's New Deli tonight, David!

so many thoughts so little time.

John Paul Schulz
that's what I always thought. Is it a luxury spot?

Terrell Shaw
We've got a great line up for Story Night, John. Y'got your story ready don't you? Can you work the Cottis Inn into it?

John Paul Schulz
It won’t fit. And it would be rated R

Susan Barnes Babb
That would be my assumption!

Deborah Shaw Lewis
It was, briefly, a Scottish Inn.


Jagdeep Singh
Haha ... I always laugh when I pass this sign, for the obvious reason.

Susan Cherones
There's an old Baskin Robbins in Atlanta called Basket Rabbit!


Anne Harbin
It was a dark and methy night...


Bill Cox
I always take 5th avenue to avoid seeing this sign, it makes too many weird images flash in my mind as to what may be transpiring in those rooms.

I remember when the S & h actually fell off and you could still see the sun faded paint outline of the name...that is EXACTLY what happenned. It sat for so long w/o the S & h they just renamed it Cottis. It makes the "English/Grammar Police" skin inside me crawl.


Chad Watson
I have told people that before... ..and no one believes me lol
