Location

Just behind an industrial building in the SODO neighborhood.

Participants

Plans

Meetup at 3pm (Pacific Standard Time)

Expedition

Two late goals in the soccer game at Judkins Park turned a win into a loss, unfortunately.

A quick dash up to Dearborn and over to Airport Way leads me straight down to the geohash. Looped past the second building and spotted a trailer - AeroIllini says he lives close but I doubt it's this close. Looped back and drove to the hash point.

A 12 minute wait until the 3pm, so we broke out the sidewalk chalk. I snapped a few pictures (and one was snapped of me) while the soccer star worked on some artwork. This hash point is near a freeway and one of the major east-west thoroughfares, and elevated viaduct called Spokane Street. This means overpass over top of overpass - some true aerial structures. I just hope I'm not on one when the big earthquake happens.

3pm and no AeroIllini - so I snapped a final picture of the artwork. Your challenge - name that pony!
