An impromptu Thursday night hash, we [[user:ClintonOddfellow|ClintonOddfellow]] and [[user:dshigure|dshigure]] discovered that the hash was in the HP parking lot.  [[user:ClintonOddfellow|ClintonOddfellow]] got in contact with a friend who works at HP, and discovered that the hash location was directly in his usual parking space.  This made hashing mandatory for the evening.  Pics to follow.
 
 
 
==Success: about a 3 or 4 on the epic richter scale==
 
The spot landed right on an intersection of the lines in the parking lotIntention to get there after work was met with hours of distraction at the Fry's we used for a meeting spot, so we showed up at night.  Could only have been better if we actually needed to use Andy's badge to access the parking lot.  I suppose if we required the use of a helicopter to access it, it would have been cool too :-P
