A Deluxe Motel from the "good old days" Madera Motel California Highway 99

Madera, California -  Important center of world famous San Joaquin Valley. Pop 16,000 (much bigger now) in Fresno County.  Dry climate - 90% sunny.  Historic center of mining and lumber in El Dorado Days.  Gateway to Yosemite, Friant Dam, Millerton Lake and worlds largest trees, the Giant Sequoias.  I think the motel is still standing, but not sure.
