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.

Fratello's: One Great Dog Here in NE Illinois-- Part 1


From the July 25th-Juky 31st, 2013 Lake County (Ill) Journal.

Earlier this summer, I wrote about one of my favorite things to eat...hot dogs, here in Lake County, Illinois. (Well, actually I live right next door in McHenry County, but close enough.)

After writing about the winners (number one was Fratello's on US-12 in Volo, just south of Fox Lake, I had to go to Fratello's and bite a dog again as I hadn't been there for many years.

It was as good as I remembered them.

The newsaper also had an individual write-up on the place "Fratellos' 'pioneers Chicago-style dog' by Jesse Carpender.

The place is just around the corner from the famous Volo Auto Museum, a trip in itself. A favorite stop-off for visitors going to the auto museum as well as on their way for boating and fun on the Chain of Lakes and, of course, heading for Cheesehead land--Wisconsin.

Expect long lines most of the time, the place is that popular.

Good Dog, Good Dog. --RoadDog
