Participants

Plans

Head down there after work.

Expedition

I headed down there after work. I discovered that it was inside of a gym. I went into the gym and asked if I could take a look around. They wouldn't let me until I filled out some paperwork, once I did, they wouldn't let me take any pictures. I did have my map running on my phone though. When I was finished, I was able to get a picture of the inside from the emergency exit door.

Photos

The form they made me fill out (I remembered to take a picture only after I had started to fill it out)
I got within a few feet at least, but the GPS didn't work well inside the building
Same screen, but with the date in the pulldown
not so standard issue grin
the hash is in the back right of that room
