Failed to find sidewalk chalk at CVS. Ran from my house to the hashpoint in 1 minute 20 seconds -- got to be a record of some sort, yes? Found the first Ben and two other hashers already there. Played in the street with GPS, in between traffic, but realized I had left the coordinates ''all the way back'' at the house (4 blocks away.) [[User:Phi|Phi]] biked across the point and circled back to chat. The second Ben wandered up and produced a surprise bottle of sparkling cider, along with several wine glasses! We clinked glasses and drank to hashing. Later, my girlfriend made an appearance, and even ran back to the house to dig out some chalk so I could write a marker on the street. | Failed to find sidewalk chalk at CVS.

BChamby
Got there right at 4 p.m., exact point was in the middle of the road, watched most of the crew arrive.
Phyzome
Failed to find sidewalk chalk at CVS. Ran from my house to the hashpoint in 1 minute 20 seconds -- got to be a record of some sort, yes? Found the first Ben and two other hashers already there. Played in the street with GPS, in between traffic, but realized I had left the coordinates all the way back at the house (4 blocks away.) Phi biked across the point and circled back to chat. The second Ben wandered up and produced a surprise bottle of sparkling cider, along with several wine glasses! We clinked glasses and drank to hashing. Later, my girlfriend made an appearance, and even ran back to the house to dig out some chalk so I could write a marker on the street.
There was discussion of Erdős, Bacon, and Munroe numbers.
All in all, seven people showed up! This was my 4th and largest meetup, which was very exciting. This is a deja vu hash for me (since I bicycle through that point every few weeks) and a couch potato honorable mention. So, I'm totally gonna load up on achievement ribbons for this one:
