I grew up in an era when neon signs were plentiful. But in Grinnell, Iowa there weren't many. As an adult, I'm still drawn to them and that's why Don and I had to stay in the this motel in Tucumcari, New Mexico, last fall! Childhood Sign Memories: At age 6, I loved seeing TImes Square's Camel Cigarette sign, with puffing smoke... On childhood visits to Springfield, MO we kids always looked for the neon Cat and the Fiddle sign, with fiddling movement ...On family road trips I loved spotting the flashing arrow on the Holiday Inn sign, when our station wagon pulled in!
