Plans
Halloween Special! We are going to get as close as possible to the hash point, but the main idea of this Saturday meetup is to celebrate the spooky season.
The hash point is in a field, but there is a road close by. A mere skull's throw South down the road is a nice spooky bend with trees by it. I have checked the weather forecast, and it's looking pretty dry at the moment. We plan to get there early-ish, to be all set up by 4pm: the trees on the bend should provide protection from what little wind is forecast, as it's supposed to be coming from the West. This makes them an ideal place to light pumpkin candles (obviously nowhere near anything flammable!). Should be fun! We will stay until dark so that we get lots of different photos. --macronencer 21:12, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
We will use the twitter hashtag #geohashingN50W2 to talk about the expedition.
