HoJo Ghost:
The REAL HoJo's:
The former home of HoJo founder Howard D. Johnson in Massachusetts. Notice the similarities to the restaurant buildings designs.
Event though it operates a a "HoJo's," it's a "ghost" because the owner foolishly removed the orange roof. It's like McDonald's painting the golden arches grey. It makes no sense at all.
Taken Dec., 2008.

Gardiner, Maine
This pic is the I-95 north location on the Maine turnpike.
