Planning
Appears to be easy adventure, by vacant lot on frontage road of busy urban highway
Left this message here with my phone number about 1500 today

Execution
First known non-birthday expedition in the Pensacola, FL graticule - done solo.
Arrived 1909 CST - 39 minutes late - time enroute 59 minutes
- Delayed - attention diverted by shiny objects at Crestview
- Too bad northwest FL and AL are both in same time zone
- Otherwise could have arrived before I left Crestview
No worries enroute or during navigation to specified point via satellite imagery
- Few meters off clearly defined city street
- Encountered some very light rain enroute
Alas the location occupied only by relatively heavy passing traffic
- No evidence seen to indicate any geohasher had been here today
Needed logistics run to do photodocumentation
- Viable AA battery supply had reached zero balance
- Navigation gear was required only for documentation and now running on potato wagon power
- Contrived xkcd sign and posted on nearby real-estate sign as notice to other hashers
- Trekked to Dollar Tree (tm) store in shopping center a mile or so south to resupply AAs
- On return I made a low pass in burner - blew through the point at speed limit 45 MPH
- Then back around for full stop about 12 meters north to complete documentation using newly acquired AAs.
Mission successfully concluded without casualty or further incident
