Dogs are not permitted to the playground. I am not a dog, so I’m allowed to go. This is the former doctor’s residence. It was in the worst condition of all the buildings. According to the sign there has been a congregation home here. A look inside the storage reveals a colorful mess. A bookContinue reading “Side Effects Of A Sawmill Part II”

Side Effects Of A Sawmill Part I
In the 1870’s a sawmill was founded on an island close to a small town. As it often happened, a whole community was slowly built around it. The sawmill has closed and is gone, but in this particular location the other buildings in the area are astonishingly well preserved, although abandoned. I learned of thisContinue reading “Side Effects Of A Sawmill Part I”
Goodbye, Nightmares Part XVII
The second garage seemed larger than the first one. There were two cars parked here. The newer car is a second generation Toyota Camry. It was manufactured between 1986 and 1991, but this doesn’t yet tell, when it was abandoned here. This certainly is no Toyota. The door up front suggests, that there has alsoContinue reading “Goodbye, Nightmares Part XVII”
Goodbye, Nightmares Part XVI
The end is near. Please keep going. That door over there leads to the final unexplored part of the main building. Cardboard boxes and cold rooms. The pile of stuff was such, that it was impossible to enter the area. Beneath it is an even bigger pile of animal fodder bags, unless it’s been takenContinue reading “Goodbye, Nightmares Part XVI”
Goodbye, Nightmares Part XV
Continuing with the room of requirement. See, how the radiators by the windows have started to rust. That keyboard is surely not of the latest model. Nor is the tape deck. And here we have a lot of money – from some game. I don’t think that’s Monopoly money. A guide to the start ofContinue reading “Goodbye, Nightmares Part XV”
Goodbye, Nightmares Part XIV
The entrance to the basement. Back in 2010 I wasn’t alone in here and explored this area. There was a dressing room and a washing room and access to other parts of the basement. The probable thing is, that workers entered through this door in the morning, changed into work gear and then went toContinue reading “Goodbye, Nightmares Part XIV”
Goodbye, Nightmares Part XIII
Walking towards the far end of the attic. The previous time we got about this far. For some reason or another we didn’t go further. Something heavy must have been located here, as it has been attached to the floor. That’s an interesting looking hole. I’m not quite sure where it leads to, but IContinue reading “Goodbye, Nightmares Part XIII”
Goodbye, Nightmares Part XII
The closer I got to the attic, the more of these leaflets appeared. The attic was a large open space, which was surprisingly dark despite the numerous small windows. The source of the grilling leaflets and other advertising material has been discovered. More of the dull recipes dating probably back to the 1970’s. I stillContinue reading “Goodbye, Nightmares Part XII”
Goodbye, Nightmares Part XI
At the end of the corridor were shelves, which back in 2010 contained a large amount of files. The files are now on the floor. Although the company operating here was a food wholesale company, this order blanket is about textiles. The shelf is to the right. To the left is an old vault. BackContinue reading “Goodbye, Nightmares Part XI”
Goodbye, Nightmares Part IX
Between the ruins of the third floor balcony door was another old recipe booklet. Although I am a devoted carnivore, I don’t find these recipes very tasty. Basically they were all the same: take a chunk of meat, put in an oven, add some very basic spices and enjoy. Sounds like quite dry to me.Continue reading “Goodbye, Nightmares Part IX”
