About
Today's point is just inside the city limits for Toronto, near the corner of Alness St. and Magnetic Dr., just east of York University.
Expedition
Splitdipless and his Very Understanding Girlfriend
It was dark when I dropped my brother off, but I still wanted to attempt a really easy hash. I called up my Very Understanding Girlfriend, and picked her up soon after. We zipped out to the location fairly quickly in 'Em'.
I really liked the fact that the intersection included a street called Magnetic Dr. Being an electrical engineering graduate really made this cool. I couldn't help but get a picture of it before we found the real point.
Finding the real point required me to re-calibrate my GPS compass. I'm sure my Very Understanding Girlfriend wanted to take a video of me spinning about on the spot, but luckily, evidence of such an action does not exist.
The point was easily walked to and we commenced taking a few picture to commemorate the occation where I finally dragged her off to a hash. I earned a drag-along for introducing her, a consecutive for getting one yesterday and she earned a land achievement.
She looks cute geohashing, doesn't she?
Not as cute.
A couples shot on the hash.
It's like I'm drawn towards it by some force.
Remind me to fix my Location field.
