They are all active, I think they are worth quite a bit more than that.

I go to Chernobyl every night, in the wonderful game of STALKER. Sweet game >_>

But yea, I wish we had cool stuff around here. The best I've got is, well, there is nothing around here.

The coolest thing we have around is Noxubee National Wildlife Refugee, John W. Starr Wildlife Management Area, and Tombigbee National Forest.. All within about 15 minutes. Sums up to about 60,000 acres of public hunting land.

So freaking cool

We have an old textiles mill in town. Half of it is still used by some company though so we have to be careful when we poke around the abandoned half.

We've taken more pictures than just this one but I can't find any of the good ones

That bomb shelter thing is so much ****in cooler though, thats for sure.

Look up Oak Ridge, Tenessee. Its where they did a lot of the work for the a-bomb during WWII, and where I grew up. Essentially the entire city was built by the military to produce the technology for the weapon. The plant, and most the buildings are still around as well as a shit ton of radioactive areas. If you walk a couple meters inside a fence of an obvious abandoned area, there's blues and whites on ya in less than a minute...still a lot of top secret crap over tehre...

It's not blues and whites. It's full camoed MP's. With assault rifles but your not gonna make it inside the fence. Ask me how I know.

I know people who used to go breaking into fairfield hills looking for all that crazy sh!t in there. But now the security is crazy and Newtown took it over and has all their town offices there. You guys ever heard of Dudleyville? And supposedly there's a uranium mine near Danbury/Brookfield/New Milford somewhere.
