Location

This geohash was directly in a road's median, close enough to the road that Ipswichb did not even have to get out of the car.

Expedition

I was travelling across the state and noticed how close this hash was to my route. I took a slight detour from I-96 and drove down this divided highway to the geohash. I was approaching from the west, and was therefore on the south side of the divided highway. Once I got to the north side and was driving the opposite direction, I pulled the car over on the median side and noticed I was only seven meters away from the hash. Not wanting to risk getting out of my car on such a busy highway, I called this close enough for a successful hash expedition, snapped a picture out of my window of the hashpoint, and continued on my way. I can't really call this a speed racer, though, as the hashpoint wasn't technically on the road and I definitely wasn't going the maximum legal speed.
