Participants
Expedition
After work, I went to a board meeting for a camp where I volunteer. We had a simple dinner of pizza and salad while we had our meeting for the month. Getting done there around 18:30, I drove into the city which wasn't much of a detour on the way home.
I was able to find a parking spot on the eastern side of Delaware Ave very close to the intersection. Hopping out, I walked up and crossed Delaware and estimated that the hash should be right about on the man-hole cover in the middle of W. Ferry behind the stop line for the intersection. While I waited to cross the street, I took a picture. Crossing with the light, I got a picture from the other side along with the street signs.
I was pleasantly surprised that the stupid grin picture came out so nice especially with the sun shining right down the middle of the street on it's way to setting. Glad I didn't have to cross the street again(I tried to take it as I was walking so not to block cars trying to turn), I walked back to the car and headed for home.
Upon further review, the other Expedition report for this date (link below) indicates that OfficeLinebacker very much wanted to go, but due to the state of Public Transport in that area, he Did Not Attempt which makes this a Last Man Standing event!

The hash is about half a car length behind the Stop Line in the intersection.
Waiting for the light to change so I could cross through the hash point.
Walked through the hash point to get a picture of the street signs.
On the other side, waiting again for the light. It should just about be on the man-hole cover.
Walking back through with the sun setting in the background.
