I got pretty close. The spot a few hundred yards past the end of a long (1/2 mile?) dead end country road. When I got to the end of the road, there was a farm and a dog and a whole lot of cars. I thought y'all were having a big geohashing party, but then I noticed a few of the guests where in their 70's. Perhaps it was discriminatory on my part, but I tend to think of geohashers as a bit younger than that. I didn't have the cajones to interrupt the family reunion to verify my assessment, so I just turned around and went to the Firehouse Muster in Mt. Horeb. Firetrucks are sweeeeet!
