Plans

QuantumCop

I plan on leaving from Lawrence at around 3:30 PM or so, to arrive at the geohash for the designated 4:00 PM meetup time. If others are planning on going, we may have to choose an alternate location, since this one is in someone's front yard.

Expedition

Brett showed up at my apartment at around 3:20 PM or so, and we set off, as planned, at around 3:30. Seeing as how the location was on private property, I was prepared to at least attempt an ambassador geohash. However, when we arrived, the place didn't exactly look welcoming. There was a large iron gate across the driveway, along with a rather prominent "No Trespassing" sign. We decided that the place didn't look friendly enough, and turned around to go home.
