Plans

A short trip from the office, anytime today. The question - is the point in King or Snohomish county?

Harlequin showed up much later, aiming to earn the Midnight Geohash achievement (definitely for only that reason and not for scheduling conflicts).

Expedition

Left work at noon. Short drive - but mostly uphill. Bloomberg Hills... is.

Looped around and parked near the sign. Noted a lot of power wires overhead, including some beastly transmission lines to the west. My plan was to find the point, then walk tot he park and loop back under the power wires to the car. My phone informs this was 648 steps, presumably including the hashdance.

The point... was all over the freakin' place. I blame the power wires. I got a near hit at a pole next to the mail boxes, so I chalked that. The aerial photo had it across the street, but every time I started there, the point was north of me. Did I walk through the point as part of this expedition? Almost certainly.

As to the question, King county for now. May revisit this later.

That done, I walked south and documented the park and the trail. Everything outside of the park is owned by the Morningside HOA apparently - or so they claim. I didn't stick around to ask questions.

Hash done, I looped back to the office. Now to find some real lunch!
