Expedition

I love the idea of geohashing, and decided on a whim to visit this one the same day I discovered it. We live in Indianapolis, but the hash for that graticule on that day was very far away. Since we were going to be in Westfield anyway, we decided to try our luck with that hash. Starting in Indianapolis, we were excited as we got closer to our first ever geohash! We came around the corner - 200ft! 100ft! 83ft! --before we discovered that the location was in someone's private residence. Sad times. We parked in front, shot a picture as proof that we'd made it, and went to dinner at Big Hoffa's Barbecue.
