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.

Not So Much Driving This Summer, Just Enjoying the Local Area
THURSDAY, AUGUST 8TH
We had been planning on boating, but I got tied up with the yard.
Drove to McHenry, Illinois, and did some shopping, then ate at Vickie's Place on the deck overlooking the Fox River. They have a fantastic selection of unique burgers (even better with a buy-one-get-one Chain Crawl coupon).
We went to Fox Hole in the old 1880s Riverside Hotel on the other side of the river for passport stamp and then I went to Vinyl Frontier (mom and pop record store) and bought a Roomful of Blues CD.
Then, we went to the Veterans Park and watched New Odyssey play at the gazebo. Liz's former classmate in Chicago, Michael Feddick, is a member of the band. They put on a fantastic show and were well-received. They're heading to Springfield the next two days to play at the state fair and then will be back Sunday to play at St. John's Parish Fest in Johnsburg.
