Tucumcari New Mexico is well known to the Route 66 traveler for its neon motel
signs many still in working order. I had hoped to spend the night in Tucumcari
at the Blue Swallow motel but due to some things taking longer and some not
taking as long as I planned I ended up in Tucumcari in the morning. |

Like most small cities along Route 66 some businesses survived and others
didn't and Tucumcari has its share of places that didn't make it like this
gas station. |

Tee Pee Curios is one of those places that just keeps going. The neon is in
beautiful shape and the interesting shop is a must stop. The Blue Swallow
is a legend on Route 66 and the owners even encourage stopping to view the
properties. They are immaculately maintained inside and out. |
