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.

Charles W. Nash (General Motors) Born On a Farm in DeKalb County
From the February 13, 2019, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1944, 75 Years Ago.
"A story appearing in a New York paper telling of the 80th birthday of Charles W. Nash, former president of the General Motors and Nash Motors and founder-chairman of the Nash Kelvinator Corporation, is of special interest in this locality.
"His birthday was celebrated January 28 at Los Angeles. Mr. and Mrs. Nash will celebrate their 60th anniversary in April.
"He started his career building wagons and carriages and later entered the automobile industry. In 1912 he headed the General Motors and in 1937, along with G.W. Mason negotiated the Nash-Kelvinator merger.
