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.

On the Road, 66 That Is

Winter 2011 Newsletter of the Oklahoma Route 66 Association.

Oklahoma is my third favorite Route 66 state behind Illinois and Missouri.

Jill Ann Church does a great job putting together a very informative newsletter.

Some items written about in the most recent issue:

** Mention of the new Munger-Moss Motel sign in Lebanon, Mo. (our favorite 66 motel).

** The Oklahoma Association had a two-day hands-on preservation project at the famous Lincoln Motel in Chandler where they repainted the metal surface of the neon sign September 11, 2010.

The motel is under new ownership and much renovation is going on. (Definitely high on our list of places we want to stay at.)

** A place to visit (we haven't) is the Edmond Historical Society Museum in the WPA-built former armory of the 179th Infantry, 45th Division Oklahoma National Guard

** Another place to visit (we haven't) is the Dobson Museum in Miami which has a big display of Texaco memorabilia.

Always Something New to See on the Route. --RoadDog
