Participants

Luke (talk)

Plans

After about a 2 & 1/2 year hiatus, Gabe randomly decided to check the day's geohashes. He informed Luke that the hash in Dallas was nearby White Rock Lake. Luke said "why not?" and made a plan to take the DART light rail to White Rock Lake, and then run the rest of the way to the hash.

Expedition

Luke walked to Downtown Plano Station and took a Red Line train south to SMU/Mockingbird Station. There he transferred to a Blue Line train going north. One station later he got off at White Rock Station. Luke ran from the station along the lake for about 3.7 miles (5.95 km) to the neighborhood. He approached a nice house, walked up the driveway, and arrived at the hash! Then it was time to get back to the train station to catch the trains home. Luke ran faster than he usually does to make it in time and arrived at the station with about 5 minutes to spare. The trains home were pleasant and on time.
