The weather did cooperate, but I had other errands to run as well, so I drove up Chimney Rock Rd., past the quarry, into Bernardsville.  When I got there, I realized that there was no empty lot along the road; it was one house after another.  Thwarted by private property once again, and knowing that the police station was a block and a half away, I took some photos and left quietly.

Plans

Jevanyn: The geohash is only a couple of miles from my house, so I'm going to try to bike there, if the weather cooperates. Atlernately, I need to pick up some lumber from Home Depot anyway, which will take me to Bridgewater Commons this evening. Chimney Rock Road won't be very far out of my way, and eight-foot 2x4's will make for an impressive if temporary XKCD marker :-).

Expedition

The weather did cooperate, but I had other errands to run as well, so I drove up Chimney Rock Rd., past the quarry, into Bernardsville. When I got there, I realized that there was no empty lot along the road; it was one house after another. Thwarted by private property once again, and knowing that the police station was a block and a half away, I took some photos and left quietly.

On further review, I think I was a block away from the geohash. I either misread the satellite photo or forgot to bring it with me when I went.
