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.

Springfield's Union Station Getting Honors

Without a doubt, one of Springfield, Illinois' newest must-visit sites, along with all the others, is the newly restored Union Station, across from the Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum (and nothing from the station was shoplifted by the Museum director).

This also serves as a Springfield and Illinois tourism center. The building, its tower, and landscaping are IMPRESSIVE.

The October 22nd Springfield State Journal-Register reports that Union Station has recently received two awards.

The National Trust for Historic Preservation gave it one of its 21 National Preservation Honor Awards.

Friday, it will receive one of 8 State Preservation Awards from Landmarks Illinois.

A Job Well Done. --RoadDog
