JUNE 6-- The giant Vess Soda bottle in St. Louis is being restored. The 34-foot-tall, steel bottle will be getting a new paint job for the company's 100th anniversary. It was originally installed in 1952. I like this sort of thing, but have never seen it. Maybe next time through town.
JUNE 9-- "Cars" movie marks its 10th anniversary after having grossed more than $460 million world wide. I saw the movie three times (once at a drive-in in McHenry, Illinois). Until this movie, I had very little use for animated movies. Now I see them often. I thought that it wouldn't be good, but was I ever wrong and it was great for Route 66 awareness.
JUNE 10-- Meramec caverns reopens today after being closed for three months because of cancer-causing fumes.

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.
