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, September 2019: Cadillac Resists Arsonist, Roy's and the Photographer
SEPTEMBER 9-- An arsonist torched a car at the Cadillac Ranch outside of Amarillo. It was a 1949 Cadillac Fastback Coupe. However, back then they built the GM behemoths sturdy and strong and in a short time people will have covered up all evidence of the evil deed.
SEPTEMBER 11-- Roy's Motel and Cafe will be relit in mid-November. It is out in the middle of nowhere in Amboy, California. A true ghost of 66.
SEPTEMBER 12-- Photographer Robert Frank died at age 94. In 1958, he had a popular book called "Americans" which featured a Route 66 photograph which has led to many, many more since then.
