No Gas for You
< on 11/5/2008 2:21 PM >
Posted on Forum: UER Forum
 
I went for a ride in my car
But without gas it would not go too far
I stopped at a station in the dead of the night
I almost wept, as not a pump was in sight.



I said to myself this isn't so bad
Remembering that next door, great food could be had






The restaurant was abandoned, no food to be found
Only a lonely light post, now fallen to ground.
My stomach was growling, it wanted to be fed.
Maybe I could find food in this old stinky shed.




The shed was empty, it was a messer
But low and behold I did find a dresser

Many thanks. I'll be interested to see what you can do with your camera and the other location. I found out last night that my co-worker used to live in one of the old motel rooms hehe.

The "I was fired" photo thread pics were taken the same day as these photos were. That was the result of a single road trip to Worthington, Ontario. It was a mixture of a keen eye as well as using Google Maps to scout out some back roads.

There are quite a few gas stations along the route from Sudbury to Whitefish that have closed. The one posted above is the nicest of the bunch. Whitefish itself has three abandonments within a stones throw of one another.

MSGSudz: Regarding Friday... Edgar is still a go, I am off Saturday so no worries there. I am however thinking that since we've already seen Edgar, that a trip up north might be in order. This is a strong debate though because I've always wanted to meet up with Copysix and a few others and this is opportunity.

yeah i've been thinking that as well...going north may offer fresher opportunities for exploring...but it would be cool to meet some of the southern gang.

Ah I see what you mean. A keen eye really helps. As I drove to work today, I noticed two new abandoned houses I drive by almost daily and I never saw them until today. Google maps does help alot but you can only see the roof so it doesn't let you know if its abandoned 100 percent.

Do I see a trip planned to Edgar? Am I invited?

lol
