1. 2008 National Main Streets Conference-- Will be held in Philadelphia March 30 to April 2nd. There will be 60 educational sessions and 21 educational tours as well as a free, day-long Main Street Four-Point Approach, whatever that is? Hey, I always REALLY liked field trips when I was in school.
The Main Street Program has done a lot for bring decaying town main streets back to life and is a great program.
2. Historic Indiana Tour-- will be held May 5-11th, with most days doing things around Indianapolis, but May 7th a trip to Bloomington and French Lick, and May 8th, Columbus, before heading back to Indy.

In Illinois that goes for the Hegeler Carus Mansion in LaSalle, Normal Theater Film Center in Normal, Tinker Swiss Cottage in Rockford, and the Unity Temple (Frank Lloyd Wright) in Oak Park.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
