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.

The Jinx at Pine and Third Street in DeKalb in 1917
From the October 4, 2017, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."
1917, 100 Years Ago.
"The corner of Pine and Third streets in DeKalb seems to have a jinx there lately. A week ago, some motorist came around the corner with too much speed and the result was torn up parking and a tree minus bark. Residents did not see the car.
"Yesterday, a man on horseback was coming at a fast clip, when the horse stumbled and fell on the pavement throwing him."
Hey, Watch Your Speed at Third and Pine. --RoadSpeed
