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.

Of Motorcycle Accidents and Bypasses
From the Nov 20, 2019, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1919, 100 Years Ago.
"Andrew Manos, the proprietor of the shoe shining parlor at the corner of Second Street and Lincoln Highway who was injured yesterday afternoon when he crashed into the post at the corner of First and Pine streets while riding a 'third wheel' motorcycle, regained consciousness last night and was this morning so much improved that he was removed to his home."
1994, 25 Years Ago.
"Peace Road will continue its trek north next week when the newest segment of the road will be officially opened.
"DeKalb County Engineer Cliff Adams said a dedication and ribbon-cutting ceremony for Peace Road between Sycamore Road and Route 64 will take place Tuesday near the intersection of 64 and Peace Road."
Peace Road serves as a bypass around Sycamore.
