Location

Near a flagpole in Luther Burbank Park, Mercer Island.

Participants

Thomcat

Plans

Stop by after work, aiming for 5pm.

Expedition

My 5pm aim was slightly off because I needed to get some fuel. Needed is relative, of course, I might have done fine without. Anyhow, it was on the way, and reasonably priced.

The trip south had the predicted amount of traffic, and I pulled off the highway on the appropriate Mercer Island exit. So far so good, except it was nearly full dark, no moon. I did my research ahead of time, though, and the point should be in a clearing with a flagpole - no underbrush!

I parked, walked, found the pole and did the hash dance. Hmm, that sentence could be misconstrued. I found the point, uploaded the picture I took and added another, then headed off to rehearsal.
