Location

neighborhood in Virginia Beach, Va

Participants

Plans

Checked at work and saw that the hash was in town, so knew I could run and get it this evening. I thought I might be able to take my bike, but looking closer, I realized that it was a little too far away to get there and back in daylight by bike. I'll have to save that for another day. I decided to pick up the family and drag them along before we went to dinner.

Expedition

Arriving home, I changed into my Outdoor Adventure #9 and got the family in the car and ready to go. I didn't look too closely at the hash location online, so we fired up the GPS and followed the arrow. We soon got the neighborhood where the hash was, but it took a few wrong turns to find the right entrance that would get us there.

We found the hash just off the road, on the sidewalk/front yard of a home. I didn't bother speaking with the homeowner, but pulled my wife out of the car to document the Drag-Along. After the photo, I dropped my hashmark on the sidewalk and we headed out. The rest of the adventure consisted of shopping and dinner.
