Expedition

I was headed to the east side of the state for a one-day conference, and the hashpoint was almost at the on-ramp to the highway. So my morning itinerary was: drop Rebekah off at school where she's directing a play in the "24-hour theater" (6:45 am), make a gas-and-coffee stop on the north side of 28th St (7:10 am), find the hashpoint on the south side of the street (7:22 am), and get on the highway toward Ann Arbor (7:28 am). I missed the first 10-minute talk but it was worth it.

The occupants of the commercial building just south of the hashpoint seem to have some trouble with clear English, judging by (1) the name they chose for the building, and (2) their parking-restriction signs. In contrast, one thing that consistently impresses me about the Geohashing community is how well everybody writes.

  Proof.

  Is "BUILDING" a noun or a verb?

  It's a big building and a big parking lot. One guest?
