Urban Exploration - Tumblr Posts

I have a riverbed behind my house that me and a friend hang out in, it winds through properties, and under the railway onto council land. I'm not sure if it's completely legal since it borders the fence to the mines, but no one's caught us yet.

It's so sad that there are very few places anyone can go that provide that perfect secret little hideaway somewhere in th woods. Everything is someones property, public parks that are just grass, or housing developments now. I just want to be able to take a short walk from my house to some (not even that deep) woods and find a cool tree and make it my hang out spot and to walk along the naturally forming paths from other people and animals taking time to actually enjoy nature.

Season 3 - Urban Exploration

I could kind of see the kids doing some urban exploration and going in to the now abandoned HNL to do some detective work.

Why am I posting a Dan Bell video in the Stranger Things tag? This is what I think the true fate of the town of Hawkins will be. In the last season the town will be considered toxic and the government will urge the residents of Hawkins to flee the town completely. The Upside Down leaked too much. It's hard to defeat completely. The spores probably make people in town sick. The best solution is evacuation.

These are a series of pictures at an old mill here in the Boston area. The company that owned it, Bird and Son, was founded in 1795 as a producer of paper and linens, and this mill was built in 1817, taking advantage of early industrialization powered by a river that was diverted to flow beneath the mill.

Bird and Son quickly achieved a level of general success, and on archived company websites, they claim that they received a the contract to produce rag paper for the first American paper money in 1812. I have done a fair amount of research and have been completely unable to find any primary sources verifying that assertion.

In the 1880s, they expanded to producing other materials, finding a niche in the production of roofing tiles and construction materials. The post WW2 housing boom caused their fortunes to skyrocket for a time, but economic stagnation and the move to outsource production to countries with more lax labor laws meant this mill was closed by the mid 1980s, before being partially demolished and refurbished into office and storage space by the 1990s. Today it holds a sporting goods store, a bakery specializing in pies, a photography studio and a couple of unmarked storage docks.
