I happened to check the day's hashpoints (centered on the Madison grat, where I live) rather late in the day. Aside from a nearby easy point in Cottage Grove, which I was evidently too lazy to get out and visit, I noticed that the Schaumburg hashpoint lay just outside the big Sears campus in Hoffman Estates. This was interesting because an adventurous friend of mine from Tokyo now works there. But it was already 6:30 PM, and he would have gone home by then.

I sent him a by-the-way, disappointed sort of email, and a few hours later, photos appeared in my inbox! Apparently he works later than I gave him credit for.

I hope he will tell his part of the story below.
