This hash is located in South Foxboro, MA in the Boston, Massachusetts graticle. The cache is in the woods bordered by Spruce St, West St, Daniels St, and I-495. Best access is probably through the empty field located at approximately 48 Spruce St.

Nearby restaurants are listed here.

Weather forecast for Foxborough, MA predicts afternoon thunderstorms, wind 20-30 mph.

If the weather is bad, we'll probably retreat to a nearby food place and kick back around a table. However, I plan to bring kites. If the wind is strong and there's no lightning, I'm going to see about flying them from the field to the north. If anyone has a Canon camera from this list, I would love to (nondestructively) mod it to do time-lapse and (perhaps destructively) fly it on a kite. If there is lightning, we'll have to create a Ben Franklin achievement.--Xkcd 14:32, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

4:00PM Meetup

The following people are planning to attend the 4:00pm meetup:

  • kjones and friends plan to attend.
  • Randall and Steve (and Pinecone and Lauren) plan to attend. The plan is to reach the geohash and then go walking through the state forest.

  • Eric plans to attend if the rain isn't too bad.
  • Sully hopes to be there.
  • Beau will be there, might bring bike to explore the forest
  • CA will almost certainly be there, rain or shine. If it does rain, though, are other people still going?
  • J.P. will not be square.
  • Glench will be there, with the bubbles.


The following people are not planning to attend the 4:00pm meetup:

  • Ben is unfortunately unable to make this week due to my sisters bday bbq on the cape. And this one was so close to where I grew up too. Waaah.*
  • John will not be there due to the fact that it's all the way down there, and he's all the way up here.


The following people are somewhat ambiguous as to their plans regarding the 4:00pm meetup:

  • Daktyls will attend if the cable guy has finished in time.
