    Both of my parents grew up in Picher, Oklahoma. I've got some childhood memories there as well. It's heartbreaking 💔, to see this.

    In 2013 or early 2014 I mapped some properties of the BNSF railroad that the railroad still owned and had leases and other contracts on.

    I would be afraid to go inside those houses. They might collapse

    That place is way too toxic, I'm going to leave some puppets there and see if they mutate and begin performing shows on their own.

    Is there a danger there with fumes? Audio is low, did you say a cat just walked by? Do you often see stray dogs, cats? Are you able to rescue them?

      No not so much the fumes, but if you were to breathe in chat dust that could lead to health problems. And yes a cat walked by but was gone before I could show it. We’ve seen many stray cats on our explorations and heard a dog once in an old building but we didn’t get close enough to see it. Every time we see these animals they run away from us and we aren’t able to rescue them.

    That church sounded haunted as you walked into it

    Was that church in Douthat? My preached at Douthat Baptist Church in the 1950’s.

    You don't see or hear any birds or insects! That means you should be wearing a respirator mask as that place in contaminated with Pb dust! There is a Lead mountain in the vista , i would split quick.

      It was well below freezing outside, in the middle of winter, I would say that is the cause of the lack of birds or insects. There is def. certain parts I wouldn’t go into. But as long as you stay on the main roads and avoid the chat piles you should be okay.

    Such a nice video. I would recommend redoing the narrating though.
