Some New News About an Old Road.
1. PAUL's HOME-- The August 14th Hello Magazine site from London reports that Sir Paul and girlfriend Nancy Shevell are home after a month trip on 66, something Paul McCartney has always wanted to do (especially since he is 66). Plus, this was the first time they got to really be together.
They didn't stay in 5 star motels and met lots of fans.
2. BUY A MOTEL-- Torches Motel in Barstow, California is for sale. For a cool $1,025,000, you too can own a piece of Route 66, even though I doubt that Paul would stay there. That's a lot considering that the Blue Swallow was around $100,000. Even with that neat sign and a 1942 Route 66 pedigree, it wouldn't seem that the 18 rooms with private baths and manager's apartment is worth it.

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.
