A Tale of Two Disney Starlets

Disney made Hayley Mills a star in the early 1960s, having her play two lead roles in the film The Parent Trap --



She soon grew up and took sexier roles, like in this film, The Deadly Stranger or in this film, The Family Way --



Early in 2000, Disney re-made The Parent Trap, starring a young Lindsay Lohan in the lead roles --




















Lindsay is a few years older now and doesn't really make films anymore.  But she does do photo shoots like this --

About The Nomad Motel


The Nomad Motel
is an actual, real live place in northern New York near the Ontario, Québec and Vermont borders where I stayed for ten days in August 2006, the year I decided to go on the road and, for a little while at least, get temporarily off the tenure track.
