Expedition
Second of two bizarrely convenient hashpoints: get out at an intermediate bus stop on my commute home, walk less than half a mile to the hashpoint, do our thing, walk back to the stop, catch the next bus (this route runs every 6-10 minutes) and continue home.
This one was in the woods at the edge of a town park, about 275 meters from the bus stop. Unlike yesterday, the walk was not along a road but through meadows. I chose a suboptimal route on the way to the hashpoint, swinging too far west, but took the straighter route back to the bus stop.
When I was a little ways from the bus stop, still walking through the weeds, I saw the bus coming, so I ran a little to be sure I caught it. When I got on the driver looked at me and said "I've picked you up a lot of places, but never out of the brush."
Position of bus stop.
View S toward hashpoint, from edge of grassy area. The HP was maybe 12 m into that stuff.
View S from hashpoint. The mosquitoes were thick and I didn't stay long.
Proof.
View back toward HP from return route.
Grin (in a less-mosquitoey spot).
