64. JUNGLE JIM'S CAFE, Springfield. I haven't yet eaten here, but passed it many times. It is on my list of things to do.
65. RED CARPET CORRIDOR, Joliet to Towanda (Towanda is north of Bloomington-Normal). A group of towns get together to offer a great weekend experience in May of each year.
66. BILL SHEA'S, Springfield. Now closed and in the process of being auctioned off. This is too bad because it was one great place with lots of auto and Route 66 related stuff. Of course, best of all, Bill Sillinoihea was often there and he alone was worth the visit. The stories he could tell. I remember sitting with him and Tom Teague on our first Route 66 experience in 2002.
Lots to See in Illinois. --RoadDog
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.
