We headed out at about noon and made our way into downtown Naperville. After parking the a parking garage, we had the bright idea that we should totally walk the 2 miles to the hashpoint. Big mistake! Kiamx doesn't have the stamina for such a long walk and Rookiek13, assuming that we would be driving to the whole way, neglected to don proper footwear. Never-the-less, we both succeeded the long trek to the hashpoint. After the obligatory hashdance and a few minutes break, we noticed that we had eaten up nearly half of our allowed parking time! Rookiek13 grabbed the keys in case Kiamx couldn't maintain the pace needed to return on time, but fortunately didn't have to run ahead. After returning to the car, we decided to call it a day and take a nap at Rookiek13s place.
