After a night in the mines, we headed over to meet up with Vdubs for a look around some of the local spots. After a fry up we headed to the hospital. Although a lot of the buildings have been demolished there is still a lot to see and I really did fall in love with the decay of the place. A nice relaxed explore with VWDirtboy, Frosty and a non member.

Finally a BIG thumbs up to Vdubs and family for your hospitality and BBQ :thumb
