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.

Veterans Day Ceremony At Fox Lake Train Station
In just a little while I'll be going over to the Fox Lake train station where the American Legion and VFW are having a commemoration of the end of World War I, Armistice Day, which took place 100 years ago today. My two grandfathers were in the war, one in the Army and the other in the Merchant Marine.
Also, today is Veterans Day.
The Armistice was only temporary and peace did not completely come until the Treaty of Versailles was signed the following year.
November 11 is a national holiday in France as well as other Allied countries. In some countries, Armistice Day coincides with Remembrance Day or Veterans Day.
