We attempted to find old stuff, like beds or couches. I can recall that we sometimes went beyond holding hands.Quote:

I had put this on the back burner a little, summer is keeping me pretty busy at the moment.
I checked out the old school house I wanted to get into, and it was boarded up pretty damn good. I was telling my sister about it, and apparently she works with a girl, and her husband owns it and he's a carpenter, and he's made it fairly impenetrable.
In fact, I have a pic I took, I'll post it shortly.
It doesn't matter though, that old school house is the next place I'm getting into....I want in that fucker, bad.

God damnit, sir....you need to stop hanging out with that stoner RD.
Oh well...hopefully next time man.
@Notech: Sweet man, I'm looking forward to them...I'll post mine today too, the one I took while scouting.
Notech_The_Abbot 15 years ago
Well the adventure begins with a little narrative.
This was a lumber mill site for as long as I can remember,it was closed about 20 years ago.
The area that these pics show was log stacks so high that you couldn't see those mountains and all
of that space was filled with logs. They kept them there for years to season. Then they would head to the mill
to be cut into lumber, then the lumber was sent to tomorrows pics.
Anyway just these two to night.
(chick takes to long to load and post in a timely manner)

Jerk..
Here it is. Whoever owns it went to great lengths to make it practically impenetrable. There is a window in that white thing on the front, to the right of it.
What we would do is climb up onto it, and then boost each other up to the other level...and then move left into the window. But even it's boarded up now. I want in it...but even the windows you can't even get to are boarded up.
It doesn't look that big, but it's fucking massive...and inside is soooo awesome.

Well, I'm honestly trying to avoid actually forcing my way in anywhere...and where I took the picture from is the parking lot of an apartment building...so, I would have to be extremely quiet.
I think I might give it a shot on Sunday though...since I'm made of win.
Notech_The_Abbot 15 years ago
Which reminds me. I semi won this time,I found the hole before falling into it!
But, I did step on a nail (yes,I got my tetanus shot that night)so I guess it's only semi Win.
also this is a test for resizing pics on uploading.
I'm not a fan yet of thumbs from chick (it takes to long)

And one of the areas I wanted to do a photo study on was "Slums of STL". I'll see if I can get out this weekend. Some of them are in rather dangerous areas, though... (like marcell1001 said, Heroin / Drug addicts, crack whores etc.) so I might need to bring a long a bodyguard on some expeditionsAnd I am not physically able to jump fences and explore dangerous areas, so my pics will be from the outside.
BTW... before I start trying to hotlink stuff and look like a complete n00b, does anyone know if I can hotlink pics I upload to my Flickr album here?
I can vouch for that. My bride is from Belleville, IL. Try East StL some time. Talk about a sad state of affairs. It was a booming industrial area 70-80 years ago and now it's abandoned and dilapidated.

I remember going out to a wooded area behind my childhood home with some girls and messing around. Nothing more than french kiss or a grab of the ass. No sex.
