Hello and welcome #Route66Travelers … Abandoned places, ghost towns and almost ghosts … still too many along the Mother Road from Chicago to LA. Some were already rescued others are being restored right now, while a few of them are really abandoned without a chance to be restored.
Can we find any interested people to save such a place, a piece of American History, real Americana?
