The Skyview Drive-In in Litchfield, Illinois (between Springfield and St. Louis) turns 60 this year. It opened in 1950 and is the only original drive-in on Route 66 in Illinois still operating.
A celebration will be held June 26th in conjunction with the annual Route 66 Classic Car and Motorcycle Festival.
The drive-in operates from April to October, showing double features for $2 a person. What a deal!!
We have been in Litchfield many times, but have never seen a show there. Either they weren't open or we didn't want to see the movies offered.

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.
