My 'Wreck This Journal' as of 6 October 2012. I've had it for a couple of months now.
I actually had a lot of fun with this page! It reminded me of when I was in English class at school.

Tie a string to the spine and swing it against the wall. My 7 yr. old totally loved this. This is the aftermath, the string is wedged into the spine, now a part of the book.
I came in like a wrecking ball! Some stamping, die cutting, and copic coloring using @heymamaelephant "Twinkle Towns", and "Tandem Ride" sets.

Locals refer to this unique and wondrous site merely as 'The Train Wreck'.
The Train Wreck, seven box cars scattered over a One kilometres patch of forest, the debris from a high speed freight train crash in 1957 or 1958, South Of Function Junction near the Whistler Blackcomb resort in British Columbia, Canada. Too expensive to clear up, apart from the engine unit, the Whistler community decided to leave the wreck in situ and allow the birth of an amazing location, a bike trail and even an art gallery thanks to the incredibly vivid and stylish graffiti that covers each and every box car.
The train wreck is sort of a local secret, and I only found out about it's existence from one of the young hotel receptionists at the Crystal Lodge Hotel in Whistler village, who told me that it was great for photography and hiking. So for this series of photographs, let's wander along the forest pathway, passing waterfalls and crossing the train tracks, into the wilderness to discover those not so secret carriages from the train wreck.
The walk begins at Olives Community Market at 1200 Alpha Lake Road, Whistler, BC V0N 1B1, close to Function Junction in Whistler BC. Behind Olives there is an unmarked pathway into the dense and beautiful forest, though you only find this out upon asking in Olives community market where the ladies serving fantastic gluten free and fresh foods were incredibly friendly and helpful in handing me a printed piece of paper with directions to the train wreck itself. Here, walking at a fairly leisurely pace, almost one hour into the forest trail, the railway track takes a devious left turn and inwards to the forest are the striken box cars, like fallen warriors on the battlefield.
On the point of giving up, an hour into the trail and old legs and dogs paws screaming 'Enough already', we came back out onto the railway track from the forest. Up ahead I walked around a bend and saw in the distance a very sharp left handed bend. Could this be the point of derailment I thought? Walking closer, my eyes looked left once more into the forest and there I could just see the faintest of glimpses, a rusting, shattered box car.... we had found them at last
The box cars now have wooden ramps onto some of the flanks and roofs, and this facilitates a rather exciting bicycle cross track where the foolhardy and adventurous can hone their skills. I climbed up on tghe box car rails, and on one of the ramps to capture a few angles myself. But on a bike.... yikes!

The oldest wrecking yard in Utah and now the property developers are trying to get Dennis McBride to get rid of all this "art work" so they can build a fancy housing project on an adjoining piece of property,. This place is so full of history and is a photographer's dream.

The wreck site of the PS Albion. In 1840 she was heading into Jack Sound when it is said that the helmsman altered course to avoid a rowing boat, striking Crab Rock in the process. The captain ordered the vessel turned to shore and made for the beach. All on board were saved as was the cargo. Alas the vessel was not so lucky and was a total loss. She eventualy broke up and all that's left today is this shaft, believed to be part of her steam engine. Not having a name the beach was thereafter known as Albion Sands. In the background is the gap between the mainland and Gateholm the other side of which is Marloes Sands, scene that day of filming for the up coming movie "Snow White and the Huntsman" Thanks toPeter (pds35) for the initial info and directions.

Odyssey is off Mud Hole, resting on sand in 110 feet of water. The ship is massive, 300 feet from bow to stern, 50 feet wide and 85 feet tall. The size is also the most impressive thing about diving the Odyssey. Exploring the cargo area, along passageways the length of a football field, divers look tiny.
The base of this boat was sitting below 110 feet. This midsection where I am filming from is at 80 feet. The top of the mast is 50 feet.
The last diver in the video is Jerry.
