Album Info:
In the historical town of Temecula, the old Hotel Palomar has certainly known better times. It's still operating as a hotel and recent restorations have found that the building was originally a US Post Office. It's one of the several historical buildings in this town renown for its wine production and for the nearby Mount Palomar Observatory, built in the mid 1920s.
