Plans

High chance of rain, but plan to be there at 4:00.

• I might wait until later - looks like there may be a break in the rain between roughly 5 and 7. Will look for your chalk mark :) Coyotebush (talk) 21:05, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

Expedition

Did other things - hey, it's Saturday - and also got rained on a bit. Looked up at 10 to 4 and said "Hey, time for Geohashing!"

This is a short drive from my house, mostly downhill:

I only saw one entrance into the parking lot that wasn't coned off - but plenty of street parking right next to the spot. I parked on the street, grabbed pink chalk (a darker color might have been better), and paced the spot. Not sure if the giant metal doors threw off the GPS, but it did settle at less than a meter at one point - and the location matches the aerial google maps view.

Chalked, selfy, and took a few other pictures of the area - then off to stand in line to get into Trader Joe's. Saturday success!

• Heading out. -- Coyotebush (talk) 17:45, 16 May 2020 (PDT)
