From the Jan. 13, 2016, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois).
1941, 75 years ago: "Many have asked in the past few days when work would start on the rebuilding of the Sycamore-DeKalb road (Ill. Route 23). Only a vague answer can be given. In the first place attention is given to the fact that the state government is in a transition stage and funds for road building must be officially allocated for particular projects before anything can be done."
I imagine this involved widening it to four lanes. It is today a very congested stretch of road.

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.
