Location

On 17th ave (a temporary walking only street) in central Ballard.

Participants

Plans

Walking the dog down that street between 1:00 and 1:30

  • Busy at that time - will likely stop by a little later Coyotebush (talk) 14:30, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

Expedition

Thomcat

A muggy late-spring day with very occasional sprinkles that would turn into a downpour later in the evening. I brought the faithful hashdog for a walk up and down the street, with plenty for both of us to sniff.

The hashpoint itself was easy to find, though I got a few interesting looks as I marked the sidewalk in chalk. A lot of people out with their kids and dogs, and a lot of kids out in general - the nearby high school was out for lunch.

Just a bit north of the point was a pocket-park I've been to several times. It was once a nice Victorian house, which was torn down for a basic one-story house, and that was torn down for the park. In one corner of the park is a cement couch and chair. I've got my Deja-Vu photo of lying down on the couch ready to go, if it can only gather the hashpoint.
