About

Next to a Sammamish retention pond, behind this house.

Participants

Thomcat is thinking mid-day, to avoid any commute hassles.

Expedition

It's been a while since I've been up the Sammamish plateau, and there was a library and gamestop nearby, so I convinced the kids to go. The satellite photo indicates the geohash point to be just outside the retention pond, and I was standing on that spot. My GPS showed us to be 3 meters east of the spot.

We then played at a litle park nearby - these new developments seem to have many little parks and no large parks. Good for a quick slide or swing I guess, but not for playing catch.

The library was fun, though the parking lot was hard to get in and out of.
