amite la hotel::Near the beginning of our journey up old in june 2008 we came upon the ponder hotel.
The building, sitting across the railroad tracks from the highway, did not instantly grab my attention, but its name struck my fancy and the inclusion of 1947 on its sign called out to me for a photograph.
The ponder hotel opened in amite in 1947 and quickly became a major local attraction.
These dances must have been quite amazing.
The hotel is still in business some 63 years later.
