Rotten

Rotten

The twenty years of freezing and thawing have taken their toll where leaks had formed in the roof. The floors were actually quite solid in most places, despite a few trouble spots like this one and the administration area.

Sad that the building itself had come to the end of the line.

Spooky looking floor. I would hate to fall through that. Mr. Motts, what is the closest call you've ever had in these buildings? Ever get scared?

Had a foot go through the floor up to the thigh; pulled it out and there was a good thirty feet of nothing underneath except pointy metal. It was very scary.

This would scare the s**t out of me. The thought of dropping through a rotten floor into the abyss is my worse nightmare. I salute your bravery Mr Motts.
