San Jon RT 66

San Jon (said like Hoan or Loan) is a nearly extinct village in far Eastern New Mexico. The main street in San Jon is a section of the Old Route 66. Very few of the businesses here have survived.

I used most of the images here for an assignment in my photo journalism class. The assignment was to photograph one block of Route 66. Anywhere, not just in Albuquerque. I left out about half of the images I took, because the assignment was for one block and only one block.... I had to leave out the other block of RT66 thru San Jon. I will post all of the images of RT66 thru San Jon here.
