About

Near entrance of Marymount Military Academy, 423 152nd St. E, Spanaway - South of Tacoma; Alternate meetup location in freeway park at the Penny Arcade Expo.

Planning

Near as I can figure from the website, the exhibition space and main show run from 10:00 AM to 3:00 AM on Saturday. Show up early, get your fill, or not. Wander out to freeway park after that and we can all get together between 3:30 and 4:00. From there we will mount some sort of expedition - hopefully to the geohash, but somewhere regardless. See the "discussion" page for further details.

Nuke and Lady Pennywhistle will probably be near the south end of the park, by the big waterfall cavern, and make our way nervously towards the geeks, around 4 PM.

Expeditions

HarlequinsDad

Another mad dash for the hash and another turned away at the gates (quite literally). A museum event up the street prompted many "No Parking" signs as well as a "No Entrance" sign at the gates of Marymount Academy. A "No trespassing" sign at the fence deterred a more direct approach. Closest approach to the hash was parked alongside 152th, in front of Marymount academy. Distance to hash - 0.2 miles in the picture, although it alternated between that and 0.1 miles.

Nuke and Lady Pennywhistle

We went to the park. There were many geeks.
