Plans

I'm working in St. Louis this week and driving down today.

Expedition

This was my second attempt at a hash in this graticule during a St. Louis work trip. This one was only a couple of miles from the highway, so the detour wasn't too bad. As I approached the spot, I thought the area looked familiar. Then I realized I had passed this sign before. I checked and my GPS still had the last marker on it.

This means I can prove I've been here! My tracklog from the last attempt will show it.

I completed my Minesweeper Geohash and earned the Déjà VuGeohash as well!
