Duke City Fix, one of the most popular blogs in Albuquerque, has jumped on board with the cause to save El Vado Motel on Route 66 — not that it never was on board in the first place. Duke City Fix has been an enthusiastic supporter of Route 66 preservation since the beginning.

E-mails in support should be sent by Monday, if possible. For details, go here.

The excellent documentary, “Independent America: The Two-Lane Search for Mom & Pop,” is airing at 7 p.m. Tuesday on the Sundance Channel. That happens to be Election Day in some areas across the country.

Also, Sundance is airing the film at 9 p.m. Friday, Nov. 9; 10:05 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 22; and 8 p.m. Monday, Nov. 26.

The filmmakers also say the film also will air on the fledgling SuperChannel within two weeks. And there is interest from foreign distributors for the movie.

Here’s my review of “Independent America.”
