Along 66, June 2021: Help for the Gasconade Bridge and the Fire at Goff's General Store

JUNE 11

Pulitzer-winning journalist takes aim at Missouri Department of Transportation MoDOT regarding Gasconade River Bridge.

Tiny Messenger of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch has written a column critical of the MoDOT's handling of the bridge situation and standing in the way of  efforts to save it.

The Rt. 66 Association of Missouri needs all the help it can get in its efforts to save the bridge and it seems that MoDOT is just putting one obstacle after another in their way, so all the help they can get is appreciated.

JUNE 11

A fire destroyed the long-closed Goff's General Store, located in California's Mojave Desert.

It once was a bar, restaurant and dance hall and was the largest building in the town.

It closed about twenty years ago.

It was a suspicious fire.
