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, April 2020: Illinois Motor Tour Cancelled, Apache Motel to Reopen


These items are taken from the Route 66 News site.  This is the best site to go to to find out what is happening along the Mother Road.  I only take the stories I am most interested in.  The site has a lot more items and pictures.  So, check it out.

**  APRIL 3--  The Route 66 Association of Illinois' 2020 Motor Tour scheduled for this June, has been cancelled because of you-know-what.  It will be held next year on the 30th anniversary of the group.

Always new stuff to see on this trip.

**  APRIL 7--  The Apache Motel in Tucumcari, New Mexico, is to be restored and plans right now call for reopening by late summer by the new owners.

It has been long-closed and has rustic southwest decor and one of the larger signs.  The 22-room motel was built in 1968.

Anytime an old-run-down motel on 66 gets a reprieve that is a good thing.  Hoping you-know-what doesn't impact them too much.
