    Wow. Hope the driver is okay. But it’s going to be one h*** for a bill for destroying a federally designated landmark!

    Wow!!!! The infamous HAUNTED Desert Inn off Highway 60 right next to the Pilot in Yeehaw Junction. That place is so rich in history for anyone that has free time to research. At one time it was a Brothel. Multiple people have committed suicide in the motel rooms. It’s been vacant for at least a year I always wanted to swing through for a drink when it was open but never had the time. The ironic thing is theirs only 3 things in Yeehaw Junction FL. That haunted Bar/Motel. The Freshly Rebuilt Pilot and some hole in the wall gas station next door. Amazing he managed to hit one of them.
