Well, that excludes Mexico and Luxembourg.

It also excludes exclude.

Exclude isn't a country.
Which side of the world? -
No can do. Now, the story!

Go on, Uncle Tatyana! -
So, my family on my dad's side was clelebrating my grandparent's 50 anniversary. So everyone was crammed into one house. Me, my sister, my parents, my grandparents, my three aunts and three uncles, and 10 cousins. One of those cousins s my aage, and we're really good friends.
Anyway, on Sunday, my grandpa was done preaching at church, but you know how people talk after church. It takes a long time to get out the door. So my cousin and I were easting our cupcakes (that's what was for treats that day, they were really good) in the bacony, which is [b]gigantic. So you may not be surprised when my cousin and I noticed that the door to go inside the pipe organ up there was ajar. And this is a large pipe organ, mind you. We ask grandma if we can go inside the organ, and she says yes. We only went on the first level, though, because after looking through there, we had to leave.
After grandpa was done with second service, and got to the house, my cousin and I asked him if we could explore the church. He said yes, so we both got super excited. We both grabbed flashlights, and headed over to the church. It's only like 100 feet away from the house at the very most.
We got inside and went straight up to the pipe organ. We climbed the ladder that went to the next level. The walkway was narrow, but there were easily tons of pipes. The metal ones were circles, and the wooden ones were squares, I noticed. There was a door that went into a room with all the little pipes. Then we went out of that room. and then I noticed that there was another door. We went through it, and we were right behind the humongous pipes that are in the very front of the organ. We were satisfied enough, and went downstairs.
Then we went even farther uspatairs than the balcony. But then we decided to save the bellfry fr the next time we explored the place. So we went into the basement.
First we wnt into a door that was baricaded with a long wooden board. It was a modern door, something had just happened on the other side for it to be unusable. So we open the door, and there are these stairs that lead up to somewhere. We couldn't see where it led. But it was exactly how the tunnels are in evil people's secret lairs, you know, with the bugs and cobwebs everywhere, and the slimy walls, the stone steps. Well, we reached the top of the staircase, and itled to a pretty disappointing end. A door that led out into the parking lot. We went back down the stairs, and went into the storage room.
There wasn't much to the storage room that would be cause for excitement to the glancing eye. But I decided to look behind the furnace thing, I don't remember what it's called. There was an old metal door there. I told my cousin to come over. I opened it up, and there was just a dark tunnel. She wasn't sure if we were allowed to go in, but I persuaded her. We climbed in, and started crawling through. Some places were low enough where you could walk, other places, you had to crawl. But that was because theree was some sort of powder everywhere, and it was so thick, that it made those hills. Soon enough, by cousin found a glass jar, that was used for a lantern. A bit after that, I found an old boot. We kept on going, and I also found a classic Dole Pinneapples can (don't ask me how). We decided to leave it there. Soon, the tunnel also reached an end, a stone one. We decided to sit there and look at the two things we had found. My boot was a womman's boot, and you could tell that there had been metal spiked in the sole, because there was rust on the bottom. My cousin had an old root beer can.
We were back after a bit, and that's when we discovered how dirty we actually were. So we went into the bathroom to clean off the black dust, but it kept on smearing instead f coming clean. We went home, and planned to come back and clean up the mess later, once we had gotten cleaned and changed.
You can guess what awaited us there, what with us all black, with me holding a boot and my cousin a jar. And I'm just going to wrap it up, we had to clean everything that we had gotten dirty with that black powder in the church, and at the house.
Turns out it was actually an old coal cellar in the basement. So we were covered with soot, and some of the carpet inthe church was too.
We spent the afternoon cleaning it up. -

What, may I ask, happened in the 45 time span that I was gone?
-
Nevermind, I read through it.

The Silas thread got locked. Jacob took everything Silas said VERY seriously.
