(visited by Ian McCormick)

16-Mar-2003 -- I originally planned on visiting the 34/80 confluence that day. But we ended up going to Columbia, and the 34/81 confluence was right where we were going. I did not read the first visit closely, since I thought we would be doing 34/80 instead of 34/81. From the pictures, it looked like the confluence was in a park. This, however, was definitely wrong. It was at a Children's Home instead, and we crossed the campus to take pictures and to get the confluence reading on our GPS. After jumping around a little to get the decimals all zeroes, we took the photos, right as the chapel let out. A woman confronted us, and we explained what we were doing. She was okay with it as long as there were no photos of the children. This was our first confluence visit, and we hope to go on many more soon.
