The house is a a detached dwelling on a normal "quarter acre" house block. It is white-painted stucco with a "rancho" (Spanish) styling, and a side fence, that blocks all access to the back yard where the half-geohash is. It has extensive trees at the front, shading the verandah from prying eyes of people walking and driving along the busy road. On the verandah -- about 10m from the hash point -- I rang the door bell, and knocked on the second front door, but no-one came out.
I took several pictures, including one through a knot-hole in the side fence showing some details of the back yard. I chose to not enter the yard of the adjacent house, being renovated, although that would have allowed me to take a picture of the hash point from over the side fence.
The Flip
Just before leaving for the hash, I realised that "anti-node" was another way of saying "flip-side", and that this was the flip side of Mouse Over Day. So, I took along a computer mouse and held it flip-side up in the pictures.
