Plans
- RocketMac - I'm planning to pop by at some point throughout the day.
Expedition
Early afternoon rolled around and we needed to get lunch. My wife knew I wanted to find the day's hashpoint and we had previously used the hash to find a new place to eat so why not again?
We made the trip to the hashpoint without much hassle. I had to park across the street as there wasn't a good place to park on the side with the hash. I wandered over and took the pictures and hustled back to the car to warm back up.
There was nothing in line of sight to earn a pub geohash achievement and the only gas station in line of sight didn't have a squishy machine either. We spent a few minutes parked in a nearby K-Mart lot checking Yelp! for possible restaurants or pubs.
In the end we wound up at the St. Francis Brewery & Restaurant. The last (and first) time we were there was last year's SuperBowl. I had a great lunch and enjoyed the day.
A few errands later and we were home.
