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.

Kewpee Hamburgs-- Part 6: Five Left
The original Flint location became Bill Thomas' Halo Burger. Wendy's founder, Dave Thomas, as a child eating at Kewpee got the inspiration for his burgers from the Kewpee burgers. He founded Wendy's in 1969.
Early Slogans:
"Mity Nice Hamburgers"
"Your Grandpappy Are Here."
"We Cater To All Folks"
"Hamburg Pickle On Top! Makes Your Heart Go Flippity-Flop!""
There are only five Kewpes remaining:
** Lansing, Michigan
** Racine Wisconsin
** Lima, Ohio, has three of them: Downtown, West and East
