2011-03-09 Good drizzley morning. I found myself in Hermiston this morning so I think I will go on a little trip down to 45.596227°, -119.537443°.


Expedition

Events found me in Hermiston with no real plan for the day. The internet to the rescue ! A short drive away was the spot, and in a virgin graticule. There might be a dearth of nerds in Eastern Oregon. Struggling with my typical lack of social skills, I knocked on the door of a lonely ranchhouse. Being greeted by a an older gentleman whom was wearing a hubcap on his beltbuckle I strugled to explain myself. He got tired of hearing me talk and pointed me in the direction that I wished to go. He didn't want his photo on the internet, but his mailbox was ok with it. Let's see if I can post this correctly.
