Execution/aftermath

The farm was actually a very cute vineyard which was behind a locked gate that I didn't notice in my prior research. Vicki and I arrived with the dogs at about 3:40, and hung out until a little after 4. No one else was there at that time, and there was no way to contact the owners (no push-to-talk box or similar), hence we could not gain permission and I was denied my Ambassador achievement. Maybe next time.
