thepiguy makes another solo hash trough Vancouver.

Location

Just minutes from the Renfrew SkyTrain station, conveniently located on the sidewalk near a construction site.

Expedition

I woke up pretty late but I didn't have any classes, and only a midterm later in the evening, so I took a detour on my way to school.

I was originally planning on bussing the entire distance, but when the bus driver stopped and said "Last stop, everybody off!" I figured maybe I'll take the SkyTrain the rest of the way! It took me several flights of stairs to figure out where to catch the right train, but I triumphantly boarded the light rail car and took my seat! Then 28 seconds later I got up because I only had to go one stop.

The hash was just where it was expected to be. I waited for gaps in the pedestrian traffic to take a few pictures and then ventured back to school.

Images

  • I definitely wouldn't call this location beautiful, or even pretty.

  • To prove it was actually next to the SkyTrain.

  • Yet another addition to the "Pictures at arms length" photo exhibit.

  • When in doubt, write in the mud with your boot.

  • And last, but not least...
