And DON'T FORGET to add your expedition and the best photo you took to the gallery on the Main Page! We'd love to read your report, but that means we first have to discover it! :)

Expedition

I started out for work and the hashpoint, planning on taking a slight detour to the hashpoint. On my way out out of the house, I pushed the "boot" button on the GPS so it would be ready when I got closer in.

Three turns away from the hashpoint, I pulled over to program the GPS, and found it off. I booted it again. No joy. I figured the batteries were dead and opened up my bag to grab a couple of new ones. An empty pocket greeted me. Apparently I'd used them all and not replaced them with newly charged ones.

I went a little further on and attempted to get one of my other devices to give me GPS coords, but it wasn't being very helpful and I wasn't being very patient, so I gave up. In any event, I knew it was in a field off to my left, and there was no access to that field, so the story pretty much ended there.

I proceeded on to work.
