I just got this oversized postcard showing the awesome sign, building exterior, pool area and 60's mod room. Close up of the Trade Winds sign with the palm tree and Tiki. The building had nice A-frame features with stylized outrigger beams. Also some mod panels that were repeated in the room. The pool area with some great old cars and one of the motel rooms. Always great to find these hidden gems. DC [ Edited by: Dustycajun 2011-01-08 06:35 ]
