Was girlarchaeologist on the ladyblog. Archaeologist turned museum worker. Cat lady. I post about archaeology and history in movies and tv, along with a hearty sprinkling of cats, otters, penguins, Doctor Who, comics, cemeteries, random photos and sundry and assorted thoughts.

I have another blog, travelswithmyastromech.tumblr.com, where I post peculiar little photos of Star Wars figures. Everyone needs a hobby.

Old house with a view (Cape Breton)
Many old farm houses are left to decay on Cape Breton as an older generation dies off and younger people move to more prosperous parts of the country. Some, like this house by Bras d’Or Lake, have million dollar views.

These are taken from the abandon Takakonuma Greenland Park of Japan. The park opened in 1973 and shut down only after two years of service; common lore says that the rides were due to many accidental deaths. It was reopened in 1986 and closed thirteen years later. The park is not located on any maps and is now surrounded by radiation due to the Fukushima meltdown after the tsunami.
