Expedition

This was a very simple geohash. My family was going geocaching today, so I figured, why not hit up a geohash on the way? So we went off to the geohash that was not in the ocean, and only ten miles away! I must say, they thought it was rather anticlimatic. We drove to the street corner, parked the car, crossed the street, and there we were! We took a picture of the family standing by the side of the road, and two goth biker girls biked by, and they gave us a strange glance, as though standing by the side of the road taking a family portrait next to nothing was peculiar or something. Oh well.

We drove away and then went geocaching in Wildcat Forest, where we found three caches.

All in all, a successful day.
