Is that a cemetery? user:thepiguy will head out after work (maybe 17:30ish?)
Expedition
therpiguy and MylSh met at the Broadway-Commercial Skytrain station in what may be the most perfectly executed transit rendezvous ever. It was a short ride to the bus station followed by a slightly longer bus ride in which neither Geohasher knew which stop they wanted, but still managed to pick the correct one.
They meandered into what was indeed a cemetery, and quickly located the coordinates, and the most recent Coffin Potato Geohash winner. They photographed the GPS and the head stone, but decided to move to a more respectable location back on the road, before taking their stupid grin photo.
All in all: a very simple hash with some very nice weather.
