From"Images of 66" by David Wickline.
The Tropics Restaurant (1942) at 1007 Hickox Rd. It is located on the northwest corner of Route 10 and Business Loop 55 on the 1941-1977 alignment, Lincoln.
It has a great neon sign with a palm tree. The Johnson family, Proprietors since 1955. (217-732-6710)
David has a picture of that great old sign. The building itself was rather nondescript and thoroughly modernized.

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.
