Happy grin

Location

In a little orchard near Mainz-Finthen; not far from Q-Owls origin hashpoint.

Participants

Q-Owl

Plan

Yesterday I noticed, that todays hashpoint is not far from my origin hashpoint. So I intend to drive to Mainz-Finthen, walk to the current hashpoint, find the 1955-11-28 49 8 hashpoint, find some geocaches and drive home. I try to be at the hashpoint about 11:45 h.

Expedition

Success!
I took 2 h off, drove to the current hashpoint, drove to the birthday hashpoint, found a geocache (with nearly 100 favourite points) in the middle between both hashpoints and drove back to work. It was a nice 140 km ride.
:-))

-We drove  to Erfelden near the field, in which the hashpoint was. We took on our rain boots, walked about 400 m to the hashpoint and found it in a tilled field. I marked it with a little cairn made of a few clods of earth, took some photos and we went back to the car. :-)
-After this we went 1/2 km to the geocache [http://coord.info/GC5QQEV GC5QQEV] but we could not get it without a magnet tied to >= 2 m string. :-( -->
