Expedition

This was the first day all fall I have actually driven to work instead of taking the bus, and the hashpoint was a convenient detour south on the way home, so I figured I'd try it.

The satmap showed the hashpoint immediately behind a house under construction. I decided in advance that if it was indeed still under construction I would walk around back to the hashpoint, but if was occupied I wouldn't bother the occupants to ask permission to stand by their back door in the dark. The house was not only completed but it had bicycles and whatnot in the garage and was decorated for Christmas. So I took a No Trespassing shot from the sidewalk and headed home.
