I've been out of the game for a while, and even more out of the discipline of reporting my expeditions. Expeditions 2016-09-20_42_-85, 2016-10-15_42_-85, 2016-12-14_42_-85, and 2017-03-17_42_-85 have gone unreported until today.
I had seen the location earlier in the day but hadn't planned to make the expedition on my way home. However, as I was southbound after work, there was a train PARKED on a railroad crossing. I waited patiently for maybe five minutes for it to start moving, but no luck. I then turned the car around and headed back north. At that point I was basically headed toward the hashpoint and figured I might as well check it out.
The neighborhood was full of small but well-kept single-story houses. This was in a front yard between the sidewalk and the house. There was no obvious activity in the house, but I didn't want to go wandering into the yard without permission, so I satisfied myself with the 4m error and green bar I got from the sidewalk.
On my way back to the car, a cat crossed the street just ahead of me, and paused to look back in my direction. I crouched down, held out my hand, and made the chk-chk-chk noise that seems to be a universal come-hither signal to small domestic animals. Lo and behold, the cat came to me. It was a little skittish and didn't stick around, but it did come close enough for me to rub its back a couple times. My first hashcat!
Proof.
Grin. The hashpoint is in front of the tree in the background.
House across the street from the hashpoint. Notice the interesting landscaping next to the driveway. (No idea).
Hashcat!
