And DON'T FORGET to add your expedition and the best photo you took to the gallery on the Main Page! We'd love to read your report, but that means we first have to discover it!

2011-03-09 Good drizzley morning. I found myself in Hermiston this morning so I think I will go on a little trip down to 45.596227°, -119.537443°.


Expedition

Events found me in Hermiston with no real plan for the day. The internet to the rescue ! A short drive away was the spot, and in a virgin graticule. There might be a dearth of nerds in Eastern Oregon. Struggling with my typical lack of social skills, I knocked on the door of a lonely ranchhouse. Being greeted by a an older gentleman whom was wearing a hubcap on his beltbuckle I strugled to explain myself. He got tired of hearing me talk and pointed me in the direction that I wished to go. He didn't want his photo on the internet, but his mailbox was ok with it. Let's see if I can post this correctly.
