Expedition

The hash was only a few meters off of the road, seemingly in the driveway of 60 White Oak Run Road. We decided to settle for the mailbox. The area seems to be a traditional New England phenomenon; a windy road with the occasional older house, and a smattering of new development as well (although where people commute to from Westport I'm not certain).
