One more I'd forgotten about, from this weirdly-dilapidated-yet-still-inhabited town in Kentucky. (https://wiki.wetfish.net/upload/fc559e08-fda4-3686-9103-2251c14a7a2c.jpg)
Also, where do you live that there's all this abandoned crap, gris?

A shitty place. They knocked down all the cool abandon shit, now its mostly places you wouldn't even want to try going in.

QuoteFor 35 years, Garfield phone cases have been washing up on Brittany beaches in France and no one knew why
lmao turns out there was a container hidden in a cave releasing the cases in the ocean, but then again, no one knows where it came from

There was even an inhabitant! She(?) wouldn't stay still long enough for me to get a good picture, but was very friendly. (https://wiki.wetfish.net/upload/bea3e8a8-b62c-5031-1e56-a29644a72405.jpeg)
I found a kid's box of marbles in a cabinet on the second floor (in the one room that was still well-sealed against the rain). I figured nobody would miss them and took them home. (https://wiki.wetfish.net/upload/e9a68962-9a10-d7c2-798c-092a1d45fa39.jpeg)

So I went to this meetup of like-minded explorers. Was a lot of fun. This was a 15-story hotel. It wasn't really entirely abandoned; part was modernized but only the bottom few floors were in active use. This is us entering through the HVAC rooms.

A different section of roof. Super sketchy; it's a thirty-degree slope fifteen stories up. (https://wiki.wetfish.net/upload/c487f6fb-748d-5c0c-2b67-619c6371ac7a.jpeg)

I really like the idea of urban exploration, but the thought of still water, asbestos, and mold stresses me out way too much to try it out.
