Expedition
(Written by Roald88) First off: Puppet Master Geohash! Anyway, back to the expedition. I was, as I always do, procrastinating doing my Math homework during lunch at school. On a whim, I checked where today's hash was, and found out that it was quite far our of my walking reach. Then, I remembered I have a friend who lives in the area, and sent them a message, hoping that they responded (if anyone on staff at my school reads this, sorry for that disregard of school policy, but also hopefully they don't know that this is me). Luckily, they did, which was surprising, given the... nonsensicality of my messages. ("Hey Altair I desperately need you to do a thing for me" "what's up?" "can you go to these coordinates and take photos" "sure - why, exactly?" "unable to tell you now" "ok"). And now, to pass the nonexistent microphone to my friend, describing their journey to the hashpoint. In the words of my friend: "I marched down to my car full of determination. I travelled through the dark streets until I reached the destined crossroads. My mother parked the car. And then I walked bravely into the cold night toward the point that I had been called towards. I approached the woods swathed in the cloak of night. I captured a recording of my approach. As the darkness was frigid and hostile, I did not linger long." Altair then returned to their computer, updated me on their success, and that was that.
