GHOST TOWNS OF THE MONTH
Click a link - Relive the
past
ON SEPTEMBER 01, 1998, Ghost Town USA’s version of the Ghost Town of the Month was born.
I will admit that I did not originate the idea, but borrowed it from
another site, one I have always enjoyed and admired – ARIZONA GHOST TOWNS.com. My idea was not to copy them, but take it in
my own direction by featuring ghost towns from all over. SO - Here we are 17 years later. AZ Ghost Towns (of which I am not affiliated)
is still going strong and still publishing their AZ Ghost Towns of the
Month. AND - here we are, still doing
likewise! So I’m thanking William Morgan
for his contribution to American ghost town knowledge. I hope we both can keep our fires burning
bright for another 17+ years!
