muddy mayhem

So saskurbex and i decided that we were going to go check out a larger location and then hit the grids for some photography as we have longer daylight now. Set with our camera gear we took my car for a change and hit the road. The trip was a success we found a few interesting places but spent alot of time scouting as getting to some of the locations was impossible (especially since saskurbex was injured).

Some experiences & lessons from the trip:
- getting stuck in the mud and stopping in the middle of it (lucky saskurbex was there to help direct me out of it-thanx!)
- learning how to reverse in the dark
- small chairs are not uncomfortable if you are short
- wearing shoes covered in vents is not suitable for weather with melting snow
- you can find the power on in the strangest places
- old railway stations still do exist
- double check the gps with the map
- always give the injured person a head start instead of waiting for them :p

found some old school couches in a church
sask urbex and i
the bible to end all bibles - this thing was massive and the font huge!
piano time! - very out of tune
church covered in cyan! cyan rug! cyan chairs! very retro.
old UGG elevator
railway station - seen better days
farmhouse
and then there was this.. its missing the roof?
saskurbex and i could only be confused by the site of this
nearing end of day

on the roof

There is always a first for everyone and this was the first time being on the roof of a very high (active) building (20 stories!). I can say now that being that high watching the city at midnight is amazing and i will definately be doing this again. There isnt much in this province to urban explore but if you look hard enough (in the few cities we have) you will find something.

I probably would not have done this if some explorers from alberta weren't with us this weekend and suggested the idea of climbing the building. So thank you to them for pushing my envelope of exploring and letting me try something new! I definately loved it.

contact me!
