Plans

I saw that the hashpoint was in a relatively accessable spot in my hometown, and what's more, close to my house (765 meters as the crow flies). I decided to leave work early today so as to make it to the hashpoint at 4:00. The only real planning I needed was to decide whether to take bikes or to walk.
