TOWNSMAN MOTEL, Norton KS
   
   

The address was romantic: 383 & 36, half-mile past the junction of 36 & 283. There's a motel-like structure at the site today - a treatment facility - but the window styles don't match up.

It was run by Joe and Letha Chambers, which sounds like a Russ Meyer name for a character in a movie set at San Quentin's deathhouse.
