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.

Along66, Nov. 2021: Guardian of Route 66 Statue Unveiled and Fort Leonard Wood's Black Officers Club Restored

NOVEMBER 7

The "Guardian of Route 66" statue was unveiled at Antares Point Visitors Center in Kingman, Arizona.  Artist Greg Arnold, known for his large Giganticus Headicus tiki sculpture at the center as well, unveiled his new work.

This is at the former Kozy Corner Trailer Court and Ranchero Motel.

As I say with museums and neon, you can never have too many of them.

NOVEMBER 10

National Preservation Awards honors the restoration of the Black Officers Club at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri.

The National Trust for Historic Preservation gave this honor to the fort which restored Building 2101, better known as the Black Officers Club which was built in 1941.

It is too bad the Army was as segregated as it was back then.  But, that was just the way it was.
