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.

2009 Roadrtrip to NC-- Part 5-- Returning Home

Climbing that steep grade from NC into Virginia was extra fun because of the fog at several points that reduced visibility to practically nothing. Slowed down considerably and put on flashers. Most other drivers intelligent as well, but still had some dummies flying by.

Gas was a bit more expensive by a few cents in Wytheville, Virginia, than it had been two weeks ago while coming down. Filled up with gas to avoid West Virginia's high gas prices.

The rain, which had begun in Raleigh, continued in West Virginia a ways, but thankfully stopped about Charleston.

Stopped at Tamarack at MM 45 and walked around. Neat place with all sorts of unique state-made products, but considerably over priced. I did enjoy the West Virginia Music Museum with information, pictures and records by state musicians. Bill Withers and Soupy Sales hail from West Virginia.

Paid my three $2 tolls on the Turnpike.

The dome of the state capitol in Charleston is always an impressive gold sight. Striking.
