In a parking lot area of an apartment complex near Tucker Georgia.

Expedition

Scooter Girls

So like, I txtd my BFF Jill after school and she totally wanted to try out the twin scooter. We skated right thru the hash point, probly scoring some way cool achievements, but I was like "whatever"; leave them for the XKCD nerds. We're outie.

LuxMundi

A rare ITP (inside the perimeter -- I-285, Atlanta's interstate bypass) hash, and in a parking lot; I couldn't pass this one up. I was afraid it might be a gated apartment, or a total slum, but pleasantly surprised on both counts. As I was chalking a hash marker, two girls on a strange home-made twin scooter skated right through the coordinates. They were kind enough to let me photograph them; someone should run with this idea: it could be the next big thing by next Christmas.

  LM: Iphone actually zero'd out. Pretty unusual, most of the time, it just dances you around a 100m square.
