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.

Traveling Cup: The Travels of the Blackhawks' Stanley Cup-- Part 3
One thing I really like about the NHL's tradition of letting Stanley Cup winners take it out to their hometowns.
BUFFALO, NEW YORK-- The Hurricane Deck at Niagara Falls was renamed the Hurri-Kane Deck for Patrick Kane's visit and the Cup got wet from the falls. The next day, the Cup returned with Kane to Chicago and made an appearance with Jimmy Buffett, lucky Cup!! No parrots were injured.
MAPLE RIDGE, BRITISH COLUMBIA-- Cup goes wake-boarding with Andrew Ladd and Colin Fraser.
MORRISTOWN AND LIVINGSTON, NJ-- Went golfing with John Madden and Donald Trump. Got fired.
VANTAA, FINLAND-- Antti Niemi and Cup enjoyed a sauna.
I know of no other trophy that has such an interesting life.
It Seems Like They're Really Trying to Find New Ways to "Entertain" That Cup. --RoadDog
