Expedition

I took the car in for an oil change and tire rotation after work and then drove over to the hash. It landed almost in the same area as yesterday, but down the road a bit, close to the airport.

I didn't have any issue finding the dead end road and found the parking lot with the hash. I parked right next to the entrance away from the apartments but there were a lot of spots anyway. As I was getting ready to get out, I saw my GPS read 0.00 for a moment, but I think it had a higher error being inside the car. Getting out, I tried to take some decent photos for proof but just got mostly awful pictures in the dark before heading home. After yesterday's hash, I was planning on grabbing a better light but completely forgot on the way out the door. It's also pretty useless trying to take pictures of the area with a camera phone in the dark.

Reaching the point today, I have a successful consecutive hash starting yesterday but I'm not holding my breath for tomorrow.
