Black Hawk Motel

Two old-fashioned motels sit along Highway 12 just West of Michigan City, IN. Once very popular with travelers and tourists, now mostly used by contractors for the steel mills who need longer-term housing but not long enough to buy a house. There are also some mill workers who live 2 hours or so from work, so they often will stay at these motels during the week and go home on weekends. Olympus E-M5, Panasonic 20/1.7
