Plans

I would've been happy to cycle to this hashpoint, but my mother agreed to drive me there instead.

Expedition

All it took to reach the hashpoint was a straightforward jaunt on the highway and a couple minutes' walk on the sidewalk. After many months of inaccessible hashes, most placed in faraway cities in the northeast or on unincorporated land in the center, this hash was a breath of fresh air — and to top it all off, I reached it on my 19th birthday. I can't believe it!

Although this success was not celebrated with cake, my mother and I did get milkshakes from a nearby Jack in the Box instead, which is good enough for us!
