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, April 2020: Please Don't Feed the Burros (On the Roadway) and Expensive Popcorn
APRIL 10-- The wonderful lil' town of Oatman, Arizona, home of the insistent burros, has put up signs asking folks to not feed the burros on the Route 66 roadway through town. Feeding them is a danger to the animals, humans and people in their cars as the burros just don't care where they have to go or what they have to do to get that food (they are particularly fond of carrots)
To say the burros are a big tourist attraction is an understatement. Today's burros are descendants of the ones used in the local area's gold mines. And, believe me, they ARE insistent.
APRIL 13-- The Route 66 Movie Theatre in Webb City, Missouri, will be selling concessions during the coronavirus closure.
A large popcorn costs $6.75 and a large drink will set you back $4.58. (Still kind of expensive if you ask me.)
The theater is located at 24 S. Main Street (Route 66).
Here Burro, Burro. --RoadDog
