JUNE 13
Rockwood Motor Court in Springfield, Missouri sees an 895% increase in business from a year ago. It is located at 2200 W. College Street (Route 66).
It was reopened in January 2020 by Phyllis Ferguson. It was built in 1929 and has six cabins with the trademark Ozark sandstone giraffe rock exteriors.
Of course, then came the you-know-what. Hope the virus resurgence in Missouri is hurting her now. I know it is keeping us out of that state.
JUNE 13
The Illinois Rock and Roll Museum on Route 66 in Joliet will hold its first induction class on August 31 at the Rialto Theatre. The original one was cancelled back in 2020 because of you-know-what.
First inductees include: REO Speedwagon, Buddy Guy, Chicago, Mussy Waters, Buckinghams, Cheap Trick, WLS AM and deejays Dick Biondi and Larry Lujack.
Scheduled performers will be REO Speedwagon and Jim Sohns (of the Shadows of Knight).
The museum is in a 1920s three story building at 9 West Cass Street in downtown Joliet between the north and south bound lanes of Illinois Highway 53 (Route 66).
I sure wouldn't mind being there for that.
