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.

Coming Home: April 2nd, Cruising Indiana

Up and moving the next day and looking for a White Castle near the interstate in Indiana.  At MM 122 on I-70, saw one of those highway signs with a White Castle listed.  Got off and found the place was three miles off the road.  I hate when they do that.  There should be someway to let people know how far places are before they get off.  Maybe, put a colored stripe around places more than a mile off on the sign.

I did find a close-by Castle a little ways down the road and had my Slider Fix.  There are lots of White Castles around Indianapolis.

Passed the Big Blue River at MM 119.  Reckon there's a story there.  Gas was $3.47 in New Castle.

I saw a truck carrying two armored and armed Humvees outside of Indy.

Shortly after getting on I-74, east of the I-465 bypass, I saw a sign for Dandy Trail.  Is there a story there?  Then, there is that huge dam and earthen levee to the north of I-74.

Once upon a time there was a dog named Dandy. That's the beginning of the Dandy Trail story and the best way to get the rest of it is to stop by Jim Grey's blog and enter "Dandy" in the search box.
