Expedition
I was forced to take my car to work today because of the less frequent Martin Luther King Day bus schedule. This was unusual but meant it was very easy to pick up this hashpoint when I left for home because it was just south of campus. It was in open woods a few meters south of a well-traveled rural road. The temperature was about -12 °C.
I was sorely tempted to go for 2019-01-21_41_-84, because it's about as close to home as it's possible to get in that graticule, the hashpoint is clearly accessible, and it would complete my Minesweeper achievement. Unfortunately it's a couple of hours away, I couldn't leave work until 5, and I have evening stuff I ought to do. Basic responsibility wins out, but that doesn't mean I don't have regrets about not just going for it.
Proof.
