So sorry to hear about your early cancer diagnosis, Dio.I live about 35 miles from Rancho Seco, a defunct nuclear power plant. It shut down in 1989 because of all kinds of mechanical problems. Get this: they've turned the site into a big recreational area.
Yep, you can spread out your picnic blanket right by the cooling towers.
The high school I went to was built on an old city dump. I went to high school in the 70s, so God knows what was in that old dump. They were constantly working on the parking lot because it kept settling. When you drove through there, it was like being on a roller coaster.
It's hard to believe that paving over the old dump and building a high school on it sounded like a good idea.
