The weather is supposed to be fairly nice and some XKCD fans will be there from out of town. Anyone interested in meeting up?
Expedition
Sparky, Rhadamanthos, Post, and Ben met at the hash at 4pm. It was in the middle of a house so we took pictures from the road, which was ~137 feet west of the hash point. We tried to find a Starbucks or other coffeeshop/cafe where we could take over a table and play some games. All we found was a Dunkin Donuts, but it was empty so we got some food and then played a game of Race for the Galaxy.
People Coming
- Rhadamanthos and two other XKCD fans will show. Rhad is here from Cleveland, and one of the others will be coming in from Albany, NY
We were thinking about the default time. The plan is "show up, see what happens". It looks like there's food semi-nearby.
- sparkyb is thinking about coming. What time are you meeting there? Is there a plan?
Ah, you mean Napoleon's battle plan. 4pm? Ok. I think I'll show up. I'm pretty familiar with the area.
