I’ve officially given up on trying to release our explores in chronological order. They will come out in whatever order makes us happy!

This morning started out like most of our summer mornings. We loaded up our gear and headed out to parts mostly forgotten! By the time we reached this site, we had been “at it” for a few hours already, and we were both pretty exhausted from trudging around on uneven footings and overgrown landscapes. We … Read more

While looking for quick hit-and-run sites to fill our mornings, I came across Sanctuary Woods in Wauwatosa and the old Schlitz … Read more

My Partner, with her skills has affectionately picked up a couple extra titles, “Recon Rita” and “Google Gloria”. Google Gloria was looking at some news articles and older sites online when she stumbled across this place! It closed … Read more
This explore take us to a Volkswagen dealership and repair shop that has been closed for a bit now. (6.22.18) It was only about 20-30 minutes out, so an easy morning explore. Even after it closed I hadn’t thought of doing any exploration here. I am glad that changed! This site was right off the … Read more
