Plans

Finally the easy accessible hash in Brandywine! I'am am determined to get this one, but still have to figure out how (my father is on the road with my van). Maybe bike up saturday, and back sunday. or hitchhike? or if anyone else is willing to join we could figure something out. I would love to bike one way, but a ride back would be awesome Wijnland 14:52, 24 August 2012 (EDT)
