From Geohashing

So easy, but I've already made commitments and just can't squeeze this into my schedule. Have fun y'all. Yangman 19:20, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Ok Elbie, let's see those photos :-) -- Rhonda 03:31, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

They'll be up within an hour. Dinner first! - Elbie 03:56, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
Okay, maybe two hours. It'll take me a while to weed through all 135 photos. - Elbie 04:11, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
Weeded through most of them, cropping and uploading to commence shortly. - Elbie 04:40, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
And they're up! Bug for me if you need any more, there's plenty of others. - Elbie 05:45, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Next time a human pyramid?

I think Vancouver is having more fun geohashing than anywhere in the world. I've seen urban coordinates in Surrey, but is this a first for Vancouver? Is Ray planning for another? Juventas 06:40, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

I can't believe it! The algorithm delivered the goods! Vancouver finally had a textbook geohash. That's exactly like a geohash is supposed to be! And Vancouver did not let the Internet down. Well done, everyone.
It isn't the first ever urban Vancouver. Look through the list on the Vancouver page. Every urban Vancouver geohash has been attended. There was one in a Save-On-Foods parking lot, with a measuring tape extending contest; a perfect one in a park near UBC, almost at a park bench, with Twister, a picnic basket, and a geocache collision; one in a bank parking lot with snowmeghans, catch and dinner at a nearby restaurant; one grungy one underneath Skytrain attended by one person; one on a street in Burkeville, right by the airport ... I might have missed a couple. So what are we complaining about? Vancouver gets an urban geohash about once every two months. -Robyn 05:26, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
