CONTRIBUTORS:

Robert Garcia is a friend I made through Legends of America.  Robert is an avid ghost towner and we have swapped stories and information about New Mexico and Arizona ghost towns.  You will see, peppered through some of our New Mexico ghost town articles, several photographs that Robert has contributed to the cause.  Robert was also kind enough to provide some night photos of Route 66 through Albuquerque.  Thanks Robert!  Robert and his wife Therese live in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Bob Moore the Executive Editor and Staff Photographer for Route 66 Magazine, who has very generously offered Legends of America the use of his pictures on our website.  Bob is a great photographer and we very much appreciate his help.

Emily Priddy who actively involved in the Oklahoma Route 66 Association who has generously allowed us to utilize several of her photographs of the Mother Road.  Thanks Emily!
