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.

Overgrown Lot Cleanup in DeKalb in 1943
From the July 25, 2018, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1943, 75 Years Ago.
"City crews started the annual summer task of ridding the parkings and vacant lots about DeKalb of weeds. The crew made a tour along the Lincoln Highway and those parkings not cared for by the owners of the property adjacent, are given attention.
"There are several vacant lots around DeKalb which annually grow up with weeds, and as the owners are out of town residents, the city is compelled to do the work."
Not quite sure what they mean by parkings in this case.
