I checked the hash for the day and it was close by! It wasn't that far from where I was going to be running errands, so I grabbed my stuff and headed out. It was only a short drive (and a lot closer than I thought) and I was there. I parked in a rather nice brick parking lot and headed over. The gps showed it to be off to the side of the parking lot, just before a fenced maintenance area. With hashcrew in hand, we quickly took photos as proof of our victory and checked out the Little Free Library on premises. Then it was off to do my Adulting for the day.

I checked the hash for the day and it was close by! It wasn't that far from where I was going to be running errands, so I grabbed my stuff and headed out. It was only a short drive (and a lot closer than I thought) and I was there. I parked in a rather nice brick parking lot and headed over. The gps showed it to be off to the side of the parking lot, just before a fenced maintenance area. With hashcrew in hand, we quickly took photos as proof of our victory and checked out the Little Free Library on premises. Then it was off to do my Adulting for the day.
