OH BOY! Reed and I drove to Hillsboro, Oregon to sell our b8sball bamboo bats, and then motor on to the coast for a couple of days. Unfortunately, there wasn't a motel room to be had by the time we were done with business. We drove around for 2 hours stopping at every possible motel...no rooms! We knew there was nothing from there to the coast...so we started back toward Portland. AHA! THE LAMPLIGHTER! VACANCY! HURRAY! We won't have to spend the night in the car! Hmmmm. Our first hint was that it shared a parking lot with the Sunset Strip Club...( I think it might have been a "by the hour" type of motel) but we decided to take a chance. I think the photos tell the story...EEUUWW! BUT, we didn't see the mattress until the next morning...we ripped down the rest of the mattress pad and the entire mattress was covered with bloodstains!!!!!!!!! Notice the bullet hole in the bathroom door...and, well, we lived to tell about it!!!!!!!!!

EEUUWW! Is so right! I hope that you don't get a disease from such a nasty stay! Sometimes it's good to go cheap and sometimes it's just NOT! Boy, the Bates fam sure has had it's share of gross Bates motels...Remember the one in Canada? We were fearing for our lives and hotter than hell not a good combo! What do we go with? Personal safety? or Personal comfort? Hmmmm...so hard to choose!
