According to google, the location was on the other side of the very large hedge, in the driveway of a very large and expensive house. My location on the side of the road was within 1" of both latitude and longitude thought, more than close enough for me!

Details

thepiguy first reached the site at ~7:45 on his way to work, without even knowing it!

It wasn't until I got to work and checked the map that I realized I had already been there. I stopped again on the way home to take some pictures. Nobody else was there, unless you count the 80ish people that drove by while I was standing there. I got honked at once, but I think that was just because the hash was on a blind corner, and they almost hit me.

According to google, the location was on the other side of the very large hedge, in the driveway of a very large and expensive house. My location on the side of the road was within 1" of both latitude and longitude though, more than close enough for me!
