Logistics
- Google Maps link
- In a farm field in Patterson (SE of Tracy.) Appears to be easy access, with farmer's permission (Please do not tresspass!)
Intended attendees
- Ted (and Vicki) will try to arrive around 3:30 to get permission, then off to the spot for 4:00. Will bring once upon a time. Also going to attempt the no-batteries & circus achievements.
- Shrugged Will try to arrive around 4ish and hope Ted already got permission. Going to attempt to drag-along geohash by making one or more friends go with her. Will bring playing cards.
Execution/aftermath
- Ted (and Vicki) made it. The entire group got the No-Batteries achievement. Ted also got the Circus achievement, Vicki the 1st hasher, and Ted & Vicki the XKCD-100.
- Pix to follow probably tomorrow (Sunday.)
- [1]< Circus Achievement
- Shrugged and Jason also made it. I'll let Paige edit to inform on what achievements we may have gotten. Well, editing this page, and particularly my photos has taken a lot of time. I'm pleased with the results, though. I have a number of other photos including the other side of the Harley's menu, but I didn't want to put up too much clutter. If anyone's offended by any of the photos feel free to remove.
- We played a great game that Ted and Vickie brought called Once Upon A Time. Paige and I loved it, and we think our Improv group should know about this game (as we often start our rehearsals with games).
Photographic Evidence
Ted illustrates the No-Batteries Achievement:
Proof of the beauty of hay fields:
I didn't get a picture of where we ate, but I saved the menu for this page. They were actually closing down the place (for the day) due to lack of business when we arrived. They agreed to let us in. Our cook was very precise and deliberate in her execution, and I thought the results were good. Ted got a double bacon cheeseburger. Vickie got a cheeseburger. Jason got a chicken burger, and Paige got a veggie burger.
