Location
In the south parking lot on top of Wal-Mart at Guildford Town Centre.
Participants
Plans
I decided to check today's hashpoints before I left home to go to work. Boy, am I glad I did! I am astounded to see that today's Surrey hashpoint is not only easily accessible, but is less than a block from my apartment! I MUST VISIT!
Expedition
Since I was headed past the mall anyway on the way to the day's work, I thought I'd stop first thing. Nobody around in the early morning, of course, which made walking the parking lot much easier. It really didn't take much to find the hashpoint, grab coordinates, and then snap a mugshot.
Not quite a Couch Potato, but at least it's an honorable mention! And that, I am very pleased with.
