Down Da 66-- Some new news about an old road.
1. VW-- Bob Walmire's Volkswagen van and school bus have been relocated to the Route 66 Association of Illinois' Hall of Fame and Museum in Pontiac. Sure glad these two items were saved as it just won't be the old 66 without its artist and hippie spirit, Bob Waldmire.
2. SHOE TREE-- I see that the Shoe Tree in Oklahoma has fallen down. Too bad, but it was looking bad for some time now. I'm sure it won't take long for a replacement to be found and decorated.
3.. 66 BOWL-- The great 66 Bowl sign in Oklahoma City has been bought by the Junk Yard Daddies and can be seen at their junkyard where they are restoring it. They are located at 541 North Ann Arbor. Looks like a definite stop for us the next time we're in town.

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.
