Expedition

So this is it, my first hash in America! I flew over for thanksgiving, to visit some family i have over there. After landing in NYC and picking up my rental car i drove straight up here, since the coordinates were less than 20 miles (yes i use miles and not the system this one time) from my actual destination! (First thing i did after landing was checking todays coordinates - i'm a nerd.) Programming a GPS and following it is very easy, so it wasn't that much of an effort to get to the hash. I reached the destination at sunset, just in time to take a few pictures of the location. It was basically on a road which cut trough a swamp. After the successful hash i drove further to my relatives' place and ate ridiculous amounts of food. Happy thanksgiving!
