    Tumbleweeds ended in 2007. T.K. Ryan died in 2019. I doubt anybody cares about keeping the site alive.

    The old website is still available through The Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20200117214643/http://www.tumbleweeds.com/

    A tribute site never seemed to get past the startup stage: http://www.at2tw.com/
