Annnnnnd, BOOM goes the dynamite

Finally, after years of seeing this place & others like it I had to get in. Tried google earth but could never find it, but I knew it existed. Like Hogwarts.
Not knowing what to expect & determined to get in, we headed out fully geared & ready for whatever we would encounter.




















After a bit of research I was able to dig up a pic of this place back in its hay-day. Man the stories this place would tell if buildings could talk.

I'd hurry on this one. Wont be around for long. Future development plans state demolition to make way for a 73 Ford F150 selling oranges & strawberries.

The question is not when are we gonna stop, It's who's gonna stop us?

man, nice find & explore! i hope we get to check this place out before they demo it! i think i saw one of these once in colorado but i didn't know what it was at the time & i wasn't as into exploring back then, but had i known i woulda pulled right over if just for the slim chance of getting in. wow. i love how the shopkeeper's screen was still intact & how the colors are still so vibrant. it's like they just picked up & left! love the lonely patriotic chair! how did you get that shot of security without getting caught? if i wanna check this out should i go at night? if you guy EVER go back to this place, please pretty please lemme know i would love to check out a place like this but i am not sure Alice & i should do it alone...

edit: also great research, historical photo & credits.

I see that you carry Mags. Get the rechargeable krypton, incredible over batteries. I own both and I love the fact that I can charge at home or on the road...

I waited every night for a week at the Beet Scales, no one showed? Curious...

After having seen this, I can't think of anywhere I'll ever go that will top it.

I'm almost tempted to stop exploring all together, as anything else I see will just be drab in comparison. This is the pinnacle of exploration.
(Even Kowalski would agree that anything after this really isn't exploring anymore)

Nice set guys. Way to go all out!

I almost pissed myself laughing at the pic of security! Glad to see that Dino made the trip!

Love it!

Blah Blah Blah. Shut up and open the damn door.

So if we get the right people together, you think we could plan a meet and greet maybe sometime in the summer, around July would be good, and you guys could share this location?

We can keep it to the core trust worthy people as not to risk this gem being locked down.....
