We arrived yesterday after a two-day trip.
A few highlights so far.
APRIL 21ST:
** A stop at the Ambler-Becker station in Dwight, Illinois, for their Route 66 90th birthday party. Had a nice talk with John Weiss.
** Dixie Truck Stop in McLean, Illinois.
** Mahan Gas Station in Springfiled, Illinois at Fulgenzi's Pizza. As happy as were were to see it there, we were even more saddened by looking at the empty Billl Shea's That really hurt.
** Drinks at George Rank's, Springfield's only Round Bar.
** You-Know-Whats at Cozy Dog.
** The TraveLodge/Lodge Motel is no more
** Route 66 Hotel and Convention Center, Filling Station Bar

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.
