Expedition

Woodveil hit some traffic on the way to this hash, but still managed to get there by 4:10. According to Google Maps, the exact spot was on a fence line, between a couple of houses. So we went to the nearest house for an Ambassador attempt. Nick explained what we were doing, and the guy who answered the door didn't have a problem with us taking a picture of his fence. Score! So we walked over to the spot, only to discover that our GPS and the Google Maps picture didn't quite agree. According to the GPS, the hash was another 25 feet into the backyard of the house next door. Since we'd already asked one house, and some dogs had started barking at us, we decided that we were close enough and should book it before the barking dogs started to bother anybody. So we did.
