We visited the El Rancho Hotel in Gallup, New Mexico. Formerly opened December 17, 1937, the El Rancho Hotel was built by the brother of the move magnate D.W. Griffth. From the beginning it was a gathering place for the famous. Drawm by the many films made in the are. Ronald Reagan, Spencer Tracy, Katherine Hepburn and Kirk Douglas were amoung the many stars listed in the guest register. Autographed photos of stars adorn the magnificent two story open lobby with its circular staircase, heavy beams, Navajo rugs and mounted trophy animal heads. We saw the lobby, the bar and an old cigarette machine.
