Go by in the evening on my way home

Expedition

I was heading home when I remembered I still had an item on my "to-do" list, which was a nearby hashpoint.

I pulled over and programmed the GPS, thanks to a locally cached copy of the geohashing twitter feed. I also managed to get a WiFi signal to pull map information, not that it helped me.

As it turned out, I got a digit wrong in the GPS programming, so wandered around a little before finally finding the hashpoint very close to the street. It was dark and late at night, so I didn't take any photos or wander around more than I did.

I then headed home, once again passing one of the "Graveyards of Washington County" that I find so often on my Geohashing expeditions.
