Expeditions

This hashpoint is behind one of a group of businesses, mostly auto body shops. I arrived at about 5:15pm and parked in the front lot and walked around back to find the hashpoint in a back lot, near what looks like a small junkyard.

The whole place was surprisingly busy for this time on a Saturday, with several pickup trucks and other vehicles with open trailers coming in and out, each with a load of auto parts and other apparent junk.

One of the other body shops in front, near US-23, had some interesting cars in a fenced-off lot, but visible from the front. With a little research, these appear to be a 1929 Mercedes-Benz Gazelle replica (in Georgia Tech colors?) and a Porsche 914.

The hashpoint is in front of the ~~wall of weeds~~ chain-link fence.
Probably a junkyard, since that truck in front has no plates.
The lot between the buildings, quite busy for a Saturday after 5pm.
