Location

Somewhere on the bottom of Lake Ontario. So I'm not going to go there... I'm going to go to a decihash instead.

Participants

Plans

Splitdipless

So the plan is this... I have to go out to 43,-78 tomorrow anyhow, so afterwards I'm going to stop in a couple decicules that are on the way, and maybe one that is not. I should be working until mid afternoon, so the decission to take on the third will depend on how hungry I get.

Expedition

Splitdipless

So, I ended up having to pick up my brother and transport him and his girlfriend back to Toronto, and neither of them were interested in a stopover in multiple random stops. So, stops 1 and 2 in Ajax and Pickering where out.

After dropping them off, I did go to the back-up spot, as I had had supper by this point. The point was located in a neighbourhood called Norseman Heights, in Fairfield Park. By the time I got there, it was fairly dark, but I could still make out the playground. I resisted the urge to climb the geodesic dome looking thing.

43.6, -79.5 is hereby named Etobicoke, after the borough it mostly occupies.

Photos

A clear winner, if I had got to an actual hash point.
That looks like something that could be climbed!
Goofy grin. The best a man can get.
