Participants

tomkf61

Plans

I have been watching the inactive Evans, GA graticule for some time for an opportunity to visit. I had the day off from work and it so happened that the hash for the day was close to the town of Athens, GA. I decided to try for the hash and then have dinner with my daughter, who lives in Athens, on the way home.

by visiting coordinates in Athens, Georgia and 2 of the surrounding graticules.
