Plans

I got off work early, and noticed that this was a virgin graticule. Hopped on my motorcycle and cruised down. There was no time to plan a meet up, and this is a fairly lonely area anyway.

Expedition

My first hash!

I had a great time, this was my first real motorcycle trip of the season. I got a nice face full of bugs, and got to watch the crop dusters circling nearby. My phone didn't get service out there, and I couldn't pull up my google maps that I was using to find the site. I'll never hash without my Garmin again. I decided not to walk into the field, don't know what's growing, or if the seedlings were fragile. I parked in the little pull-off just west of the hash.

Photos

I need to wash my bike.  If you look hard, you can almost see the crop duster. I wanted a closer picture, but didn't really want to operate a camera while riding a motorcycle.
