I had the great pleasure of staying at the Holiday Inn Express in your Fantastic city 1 May
2026. This is the first time I stopped at your city and it won't be the last. The hotel was
fantastic and I drove through your town looking for somewhere to eat. You had many
choices and I picked the Mongolian BBQ on Oak street. Like everything else the restaurant
and food was Great. I was really impressed how very clean your town was and
friendly everyone was. Seriously your city was PICTURE PERFECT. I live in Alamogordo,
NM and I just just completed a 6,364 mile road trip. I really enjoy taking the backroads and
highways when possible, seeing the towns and just enjoying the drive. I can't tell you the
number of towns and cities, but yours was my favorite. I just wish I had more time to stay and
visit a few days. Thank you.
When I left I was heading to Spokane and Kelso Washington on 190. I saw a sign about the
scenic route 1 and stopped at the rest area. It was very nice and there were several ladies and
gentlemen giving out snacks and drinks. They also gave me some brochures/magazines and
told me about highway 1 The road was very beautiful and I enjoyed every mile of it.
I would appreciate if you could forward this Email to whoever is responsible for the
welcoming committee at the Rest Area on hwy 1. I don't know who to send it to and also
couldn't find an email for your Governor who I would like to let them know how much I
enjoyed your city and state.
Thank You Again
Raymond Phipps
