Location

Near downtown Hillsboro, Oregon! How can I turn it down? It might even be an almost-Cubicle geohash!

Plans

After work, I'd say. If only JoannaC were still here!

Expedition

Well, it was after work. On my way to the Tuesday Evening Marketplace to get fruit and veggies and items for dinner, I turned onto 24th Ave and kept and eye on my GPS. When I got close, I tried to find a place to park, then walked back a couple of blocks. The hashpoint proved to be adjacent to what I think might have been a private way. It had a number of houses on it, and almost seemed like a street.

Towards the end of the street, my GPS pointed to the edge of the road, and I got close enough to declare it a success without having to go up to door to ask permission to walk onto the lawn.

I'm not certain yet, but I suspect this might be close enough to be an almost honorable mention Cubicle geohash, which might make the third of these I've ended up with. (For some reason I'm reminded of the phrase "Always a Bridesmaid, never a Bride".)
