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.

Along66, Feb. 2022: Death of Marty Blitzen and Burning of the Bar-B-Que in Oklahoma

FEBRUARY 16

Marty Blitzen of the Route 66 Association of Illinois died Sunday, February 13 at age 80.  

To say he did a lot for the association is an understatement.  

We had he privilege of eating lunch with him once and sure enjoyed the conversation.

FEBRUARY 19

Fire destroys Dan's Bar-B-Que Pit in Davenport, Oklahoma.  It was open almost fifty years and it is unclear at this point whether it will reopen.

Dan Thompson opened it in the 1970s.

Like neon and museum, there can never be too many bar-b-que or barbecue places to my way of thinking.
