Participants


Expedition

We left the house about a little before 15:00 and headed south with a quick detour to a store. After half an hour of easy highway travel, we exited into the countryside. The driving directions started to sound a little funny: "Turn Right onto a road then Bear Right onto a road of the same name" or "Keep Straight onto a new road name." Still, we found Hotaling Road a couple minutes after 16:00.

There was no Speed Racer for us today, we only drove over the point at a safe 35mph instead of the state speed limit of 55mph. Angel Food picked up some litter so we got GeoTrash Geohash instead. Red Velvet found the spot in the road for the group picture but had to move for a pick-up truck to drive through. After the grinning faces picture, it was back into the car to avoid the rain dropped and eat store bought cake.
