A walk in the neighborhood and a walk in the park.
Here is a chance to do a study on housing styles. The Ravenna
Park neighborhood is bounded on the west by 15th Ave NE, and on the
east by 25th Ave NE. The northern boundary is NE 65th St. The
ravine of Ravenna Park guards the south.
- I'm going to give you the 7, yes seven, waypoints you will need
to go to in order to determine the waypoint of the final.
- I'm going to give you pictures of what you need to see at each
waypoint.
- I'm going to give you two formulas to use when you have
gathered the information you need.
Any questions?
Here are the predominant styles of homes found in this area.
Most are single family dwellings but some homes have MIL or
mother-in-law apartments in the basement from which the owners
derive a little cash.

The formulas:
- XX.XXX = (Brick Tudor + Side-entry Dutch Colonial + Bungalow +
Cape Cod + Brick Tudor + Brick Tudor + Side-entry Dutch Colonial +
Stucco Tudor + Bungalow + Bungalow + Wood-framed Tudor + Cape Cod +
14)/1000
- YY.YYY = (Side-entry Dutch Colonial + Four Square + Bungalow +
Stucco Tudor + Wood-framed Tudor + 21)/1000
Checksum: XX.XXX + YY.YYY = 58.558
When you have the answers you will know what to do with them.

There is never any need to leave the public right of way whether
you travel by foot, bike, car, or other. Please stay off of private
property.
No bushwhacking is required when you are in the park. Please be
considerate of our flora and fauna.
Reception in the park is difficult at best. I averaged the final
coordinates after three separate days of testing.
The neighborhood is safe. The park is very dark. Don't get
muggled! I wouldn't go down there after nightfall. What would TUS
do?
