First hash attempt in a while!

Location

Dense swampy bit of land between a highway and a residential area.

Participants

Aberro

Plans

Suit up for a formal hash, bike out there and hope it isn't swampy!

Expedition

Set out around 5 pm in my fancy suit for a fairly uneventful but tiring bike ride, those suits are quite difficult to bike in! Made it close to the hash in good time and examined the terrible swamp that lay before me. I strongly considered wading in and trudging my way to the hash point, but I was in my good clothes. Lazed around for a bit before heading back home. On the way, I spotted an old man in his 60s, with a large scraggly white beard, sitting in his car at a red light singing Beyonce at the top of his lungs with the windows down. I nearly fell off my bike laughing, but couldn't get a discrete picture, alas! I returned home unsuccessful.

by being prevented from reaching the (28, -81) geohash on 2012-03-22 by an impassable and unforeseen swamp (and probably lurking alligators).
