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.

Along 66, December 2018: Route 66 in Lebanon, Springfield (Illinois) Buys Sonrise Donuts Sign
DECEMBER 15-- Some residents in Lebanon, Missouri, would like to change the name of Elm Street to Route 66. A Missouri State Law from 1999 says they can do it. I am always for anything naming Route 66.
DECEMBER 15-- The city of Springfield bought both sides of the Sonrise Donuts sign. Ace Signs in Springfield will restore one side at no cost. They will be using online financing for the other side..
It will come to $22,000 for both sides.
The city had no definite plans for the signs as of now.
Ace Signs is to be commended for all the sign restoration work they are doing. Hopefully they will have a sign museum in the future which would be great for Springfield since they lost the Bill Shea museum.
