Abandoned Philadelphia Port Richmond Coal Rail Yard Now Graffiti Pier PA
In 1876, James D. McCabe wrote:
This vast depot is one of the “sights” of Philadelphia, and is the most extensive in the world. It comprises 21 shipping docks, with an aggregate length of 15,000 feet, and accommodations for 250 vessels and boats. The shipping piers are 23 in number, and their aggregate length is 4-1/4 miles. They are provided with 10-1/2 miles of single track, and in addition to this are connected with each other and with the main line of the road by 22 miles of track. The cars, loaded with coal at the mines, are brought direct to this depot, and are run out on the shipping piers. By means of trap-doors in the floors of the cars the coal is emptied into schutes [sic] 169 feet in length, which convey it directly into the holds of the vessels to be loaded. About 2,000 men are employed here, and the daily shipments of coal amount to 30,000 tons. The piers have a storage capacity of 175,000 tons. The company at present employ six fine iron steamers for the transportation of coal from Port Richmond to other points, and intend to increase this number to fifty. Several hundred other vessels are employed in this trade.

Minneapolis Northwest comes alive in autumn
Fall is an awesome time to explore Minneapolis Northwest, on the outskirts of the Twin Cities. Summer’s heat is happily gone and the region comes alive with fall colors and outdoor activities.
Elm Creek Park reserve—at 4,900 acres—is the largest park in the area and has miles and miles of mixed use trails, a brilliantly designed playground area, and the best dog park according to USA Today. There are multiple championship golf courses in the area, and there’s still time to hit the links before the greens go to sleep for the winter.
The Twin Cities Harvest Festival, open through October, has festivities for every age and the largest corn maze in all of Minnesota—the thing is massive. Finally, take a moment to chill after a long day outdoors with a solar-powered brew and tasty cuisine.

Indiana | Family Time in Beautiful Indiana | Cheap RV Living
Full time RV living- Indianapolis, Indiana is Christina's hometown and since it's the crossroads of America, naturally we pass through!! We camped at Summit Lake State Park in White Castle, Indiana for a few days before we made it to Grandma's driveway. Luckily, our RV fit perfect and we were able to dry camp/ driveway surf here for a couple weeks. Not only did this save us money but we were able to spend some real time with our gigantic family! What you see here is just a small taste of our family that consists of well over 200 people. We got too busy visiting to capture most of our family but we are so grateful for the memories. We cannot wait to go back soon.
