      I know how it feels guys. The same happened to my project. You should try to keep the project alive, however. Build your social network, promote your website and push on. We're rooting for ya!

      Christian, I sincerely hope this project comes to fruition. As a 46 year old woman, I just did a solo trip of Route 66 from Amarillo to Kingman. This is so very worthwhile and important!

      Hey Christian! This looks like an awesome project! I made a small donation under my first name, Walter, which I'm actually saving until I'm 65 ;) I have lived in several locations along Route 66 throughout my life so, it's a very special road to me. I still don't understand how America turned away from her only to travel along the soulless, sightless, concrete scars we follow today. 66 deserves your attention. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. I'll be at the Mountain with Leonard.

      Good luck Christian and may the beautiful spirit of "Route 66" always be with you encouraging you to realise this dream and vision ..bring it on! Yay..abundant blessings to you all.. I'd love to see Route 66 alive and awake again! and that this becomes a reality as I loved my time travelling along down the beautiful "Main Street Of America - The Mother Road ~ Route 66"in 2008 through to Kingman Az....Jeannette Jackson from down under in Melbourne Australia :-)
