There's a road - well, I guess it's still there - running between Wink and Mentone that was/is called "the Old Mentone Road". Even in the late 1960s it was virtually abandoned and in a chronic state of disrepair and decay. A road running between two points of nowhere in the Permian Basin. Is Mentone more than a ghost town now? (Guess a trip to Google-land is in the immediate offing).

I'm gonna have to go with Wolfforth. If I remember right, the city limits abut each other.

It's an attempt to raise Mentone's profile on City-Data. The more often a city is mentioned in the forums, the more likely it is to get it's own subforum, or at least that is the theory.
