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.

The Giant Goodyear World War I Truck Comes to DeKalb County, Il.
From the Nov. 4, 2019, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1919, 100 Years Ago.
"The giant Goodyear Tire Co. commercial truck, which in the company of several other trucks of like construction made a transcontinental trip last year, arrived in the city this morning and was on exhibition in front of the P.S. Corey & Son tire store.
"The truck is a monster in size and was viewed by many people as it stood on Lincoln Highway. The machine has an enviable war record, having several times been placed at the disposal of the Red Cross and other war work organizations during emergencies."
