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.

Roadside Attractions on Illinois Route 66's First Hundred Miles

From the February 12, 2022, Northwest (McHenry County, Illinois) Herald "Discover roadside attractions along old Route 66" by Ryan Searl.

JOLIET AREA HISTORICAL MUSEUM AND ROUTE 66 WELCOME CENTER

204 N. Ottawa Street, Joliet.

Life-size statues of the Blues Brothers -- "Joliet" Jake and Elwood Blues -- are photo-ready at the Joliet Historical Museum's interpretive Route 66 Welcome Center kiosk.

While there, you can climb into the white, drop-top convertible in the drive-in display, a photo-worthy exhibit complete with classic carhop and Route 66 signage.

Don't forget to visit the gift shop and load up on a great selection of Route 66 memorabilia.
