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.

This Old Blog

This is the very first blog I started back on April 25, 2007, in White House, Tennessee. My niece, Andrea, had a blog and, after reading it, I decided I'd like to start one of my own. Being somewhat computer literate, I felt competent enough to start one, but needed Andrea's help to get going.

I was returning home from a trip to North Carolina and had driven Route 66 part way on the outward cruise. The very first entry was about Dwight, Illinois. Next entries were about Odell, Pontiac, Lincoln, Ernie Edwards at the old Pig Hip, Cozy Dog, Springfield, and Litchfield.

In 2007, I had 252 posts and 376 last year. So this is my 729th entry.

I shoot for at least one entry a day on the average. Hopefully, I'll meet it again next year.

This is the first of my four blogs. The others:

http:sawtheelephant.blogspot.com about the Civil War.
http://downdaroadigo.blogspot.com about me.
http://cootershistorything.blogspot.com about history in general, but especially WW II.
