About
Hash point was located on by a stump near Bond St. and Ray St. in Oshawa, ON north of a courthouse. Other nearby landmarks included a curling club, and a car dealership.
Expedition
Splitdipless
By coincidence, I was going to be in the 43, -78 graticule on Mothers day to visit my mother. I got her Thai food for lunch and went half in on a new stereo with my brother. He also gave a CD that was signed by the artist, PJ Bond. She liked our gifts very much.
As I had already driven all the way to Oshawa from HQ, I didn't feel bad in making a short side trip in the middle of the afternoon with my car, Em.
Upon arrival at the site, it became clear that a tree once stood at the hash point. A short funeral service was held for Jim. Although, I suppose he would be the-tree-formerly-not-known-as-Jim now. Death cares not for titles.
After gathering the required evidence (I need a camera stand it would seem) I returned to my parents to have some more fun conversation and Lasagna.

I need a stand, or my very understanding girlfriend to hold the camera.
Jim's final resting spot.
Sucess!
