Location
In a cemetery near the Grand Rapids airport, Kentwood, MI, USA
Participants
Expedition
Rebekah and I were returning from a concert around 9 pm. She needs some night driving practice and the day's hashpoint was just a few miles from home and easily accessible in a cemetery, so off we went.
The cemetery gates were open and the spot was easily accessible twenty meters or so from the road. It was dark so our pictures aren't particularly interesting. However, just a few steps away from our best estimate of the hashpoint (and still well within GPS error bounds) was a well-tended grave marker, with flowers recently placed. Mr. Zachary J. Raczok posthumously earns a Coffin Potato achievement.

Grins. We are not actually possessed by the devil, despite standing in a cemetery at night. Redeye runs in our family.
Possibly my closest-ever GPS reading.
Mr. Raczok's grave marker. Given the text ("Beloved son and grandson") I assume the flowers were placed by his parents; he apparently died at age 35.
