2008-05-26: Memorial Day 2008 is an easily accessible location in Seagoville.  From Dallas, take US 175 to the Belt Line exit.  The actual location appears to be on a public street, which should be reachable at 4pm.  Before and after, however, would be much more comfortable at the nearby Dairy Queen.  There's also a Sonic, McDonald's, and 7-11 at the corner, but Dairy Queen is more "Texan".

The Dallas Graticule

The Dallas, Texas graticule is located around latitude 32, longitude -96. This area is mostly land, but does include a number of lakes. For our purposes, it shall also include those areas up to President George Bush Turnpike commonly referred to as Far North Dallas. The graticule contains a mix of both urban and country locations which should lead to an interesting mix of meeting places.
