Location

On N Adams St. in Garden City, half a block east of 40th.

Participants

Plans

Since this hash is too easy to pass up, I'll stop by on my way home from work, Probably between 6 and 7 pm.

Expedition

I called up Borneo around lunchtime, to invite him to come to the hashpoint in the evening. He indicated interest in coming, but by go time, other things had come up that had left him too far away to make it. He was virtually present at the hashpoint via telephone, however.

It was a pretty uneventful hash. I drove out and parked my car a couple hundred feet from the hashpoint, then got out and walked to the point. I arrived at the spot just before 6:20pm. Got a GPS screenshot at the point, then crossed the street and took a picture of the point itself as well as a selfie, then walked back to my car and headed towards home.


Photos

There will be a few pictures once I get them scaled and uploaded.
