DescriptionScott's Motel at 5937 Fourth Street Northwest in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The single-story motel is built in a U-shape with a parking area in the center. An ice cream shop is attached to the motel. Two cars are parked near the ice cream shop. Handwriting on the back reads, "Forgot to mail the card. Will reach Marshfield tonight on the way to Laura. Dear A. Pearl and Alvera, We are about to Sioux City, Neb. I will try to mail this card there if I can get some stamps. The weather is nice for driving, just warm. I'm writing this while we're driving, that's why it's so bumpy. The road is cement. Best, Linda".
