That was beautiful...

The most exciting thing about rides in Ghosttown is to hit a red line on my bike's tacho and break this silence with the roar of a wounded dinosaur, and then to close the throttle and listen to all those ghosts cursing 1100cc kawasaki engine.
She's a poet.

Wasn't it beautifully written? - she certainly captured what I was feeling. Very chilling, very amazing...

I'd like to bump this, just because I recently saw the link, myself, on another site and thought it was amazing.

Thanks for posting it here, Book.

This was extremely interesting, I really admire her, I hope there is no lashback from the Russian government over this to her or her father. [Frown] They probably don't want this kind of stuff spread around, especially the up close pictures and detailed building conditions of the sarcaphagus!

Actually, the Russian gov't wouldn't have any jurisdiction over the area any more.
It would be the Ukrainian gov't. IFRC, they want people to know how bad it is, because they are seeking foreign funding to help with the construction of a new sarcophagus.
