What Happened?

Katie and Chris pulled up to the house at about 3:50, nervous that a rifle-wielding homeowner would come storming out at us. Fortunately, no one appeared to be home, and no one approached us. We fired up Katie's handheld GPS device and wandered around for a few minutes until we found the coordinates. We took pictures, then waited a bit to see if anyone else would show up; sadly, it was just us. Then we used the carheld Garmin to find a local place to eat. The closest place was 4 Brother's Tavern, so we headed over there and ate delicious sandwiches on pretzel rolls. All in all, a very successful trip!
