Plans


Going to drive there, maybe get lunch in the area, and drive back.

Expedition

The Satellite imagery indicated that the hashpoint was in a mowed area. Upon inspection, the area is now completely overgrown with waist-high vegetation, much of which has thorns. Being dressed in shorts and a tee shirt, and not feeling particularly hardcore, I retreated to the safety of my car and I can neither confirm nor deny that there were donuts and drifting performed in the completely empty gravel parking lot.

I ate lunch at Harris Teeter on the way home ($5 footlong Fridays all week this week)
