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.

Along 66, May 2019: Trying to Save a Motel and the Gemini Giant
MAY 14-- Lurvey Court Motel in Springfield, Missouri, received a reprieve from the wrecking ball earlier this month and volunteers cleared brush from around the long-closed and endangered motel.
The volunteers hope that now that decision-makers can get a better look, perhaps they will allow it to stand.
The motel has been long-closed.
Of course, I'd like to see it saved, but only if a reuse can be found for it.
MAY 15-- The Launching Pad Drive-In in Wilmington, Illinois, began restoration of the famed Gemini Giant statue. The 28-foot tall muffler/astronaut guy is fifty years old and draws a lot of gawking. Who needs a muffler if you can have a rocket?
