 |  | My 2013
< on 12/31/2013 5:27 AM >
|  | | | I usually post in the Ontario board but this year I went outside the province (and the country) so I might as well put it here. I don't start a lot of threads so here's my year-end wrap-up of all the things I've seen. It was a pretty good year looking back. Decent amount of travelling. Went to Quebec three times and Greece for the first time. Anyway, on to the explorations:
My first explore of the year was a return trip to Kodak 9:
Which was just on the way to where I really wanted to go. A giant underground construction site! Man, I was in ecstasy down there. I still can't believe I got in so easily. Never ceases to amaze what kind of places you can just walk into.

Then I headed down to Hamilton to check out an old boiler house. Funny story, I was hiding behind some storage unit peeking out, trying to figure out how in the hell you get into this place when I saw some girls emerge from a hole. "Hi! Oh, is that the way in? Well thanks. Seeya." Top lel.

Took some n00bs at the meet to Stan's Smelly Garbage Emporium

Took what I now realize was probably my last trip to the dry cleaners. It will be missed.

Finally got into the Tower I've been wanting to get into for years. That was awesome! See Zen's post for some better pics of that outing.

Took part in a fun adventure time hosted by backspace in which we ended up in an unused 50 or 60th floor of a downtown office tower.
1.
See that spaceship looking thing in between the two curved towers? That's city hall, where our pride and joy the mayor was found stumbling around with an empty bottle of brandy.
Saw part two of the car graveyard. Not as good as the first onehttp://www.youtube...atch?v=x3O99pvTSbg
1.
Another new location I was thrilled to get into. A glorious, tacky, giant incredible mansion!

Saw a horsey farm with no horseys.

Visited an amusement park from my childhood that sadly no longer amuses.

On our way to the bus terminal we checked out another transit tunnel that happened to be under construction. (Renovation actually)
1.
On my way back to the amusement park for a return trip I just happened to discover, scout and explore a nursery school which was kinda neat.
1.
Finally went to Montreal for fun. Just booked a trip last minute and left the same day all by myself. For the sole purpose of seeing this beauty: (it was the best weekend ever and totally worth it)

After that I couldn't do much on account of an injury but I did manage to make it out to Greece for the first time!
Acropoli by evman420, on Flickr
And to an old house with a very old piano.

And that's most of the places I've explored this year. The ones I took interesting pictures of at least. Thanks for looking!

So I jumped on the fence and I yelled at the house,

sad face about the bay window. I hope at least it was salvaged and not smashed.
When I say I'm 'clean and sober', it means I've showered and I'm headed to the liquor store. |

You mean at the mansion? It was partially demolished so I don't know they probably just threw it out I guess. It's a shame, there was an amazing chandelier in it that they took out too.

This thread made me smile - I like seeing how many locations we've "crossed paths" at. It's exciting.

This makes it seem like you're talking about banging in abandoned buildings. ;]
The factory in 3115 looks rather badass. I don't blame ya for doing a solo mission there. I'd need all the time!

Yeah I spent hours there! Top three if not the best building I've ever been in. I wasn't alone either, I had a bunch of 13 year old kids that showed up show me the way around.

12 or 13 year olds? Makes it sound like youre saying a group of 12 or 13 one year olds were showing you around. xD

Bay window was saved. The house was stripped down & everything auctioned.

The 13 year olds know all the good spots, as I once learned from experience.
