Location

This looks to be a private driveway in Lynnwood.

Participants

Plans

This location is 5.8 km from Thomcat's office, so a drive by around 3:15 is the best bet.

Going to be closer to 4:00 - shutting down now. --Thomcat 18:37, 28 June 2012 (EDT)

Expedition

Used the AG site to print up a flyer, which conveniently came with an address of the lot. Punched that into my in car navigation system, and bam I was there!

The driveway is pretty much as shown in the satellite photo, with a boat in the location of the geohash and an older model car right next to it. I did not bring a basketball, so I propped the flyer in the windshield, took a few pictures, and drove home.

If you are the owner of said car and are visiting this page, HI! You can click on the "discussion" tab and then "edit" to say hi to us, or create an account, or become a geohasher. Today only special - you can claim a "couch potato" geohash (something many of us wish would happen) as your very first geohash!
