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.

The Log Cabin in Galena, Illinois

By far our favorite place to eat in Galena, and one we've been going to for the last 36 years. This is where we ate the day after the wedding, August 26, 1973.

They still have one of those great old neon signs that hangs out over the sidewalk. When you see one of those signs, chances are very good that there will also be some outstanding food.

A Greek family bought it a year or so after we first went there and have owned it ever since. They haven't changed much, if any (well, prices of course).. Hey, why mess with something that works.

They always have a crowd when we visit as well, and, no wonder. The food is outstanding. I usually order the t-bone or catfish, but this last time I tried the Greek chicken. Good eating.

Meals come with soup or salad, rolls, a vegetable tray and potatoes. Get their hash browns for a real treat.

On the weekends, they have a person playing the piano.

I particularly like the old menu from 1936. Sure wish we could get food at those prices.
