About Lucky
Lucky is an insurance agent, Burner, and sometime land pirate with very little math or web editing know-how. They simply like the idea of a random adventure generator. Lucky works in one graticule, lives in another, and is close to four others. When they find a hash they can get to, on a day that they have time, they do it. Unfortunately, it does not appear that there are many active geohashers nearby. As a side note, Lucky usually edits the wiki from an iPhone, which can get pretty tricky. Their skeptical SO is sometimes in the car when Lucky wanders off to a hash.

Planning

2013-03-02 38 -120 [[[38,-120]]] - This hash was on East Bay Municipal Utility District property. No trespassing signs all over the place.

Succeeded
2013-02-23 38 -121 [[[38,-121]]] This one looks like I can get to it, and it's on (relatively) public property! Probably try for morning, instead of 4pm, though. - Got within feet, but couldn't get the GPS to cooperate. Also, there was a fence. Still fun and interesting! - I'm switching this to Succeeded, due to the fact that my margin of error was about 4 feet, and I'm sure that the hash was right there on the other side of the fence, or maybe I was standing on it. Either way, I was there, it was there, and I was really, really close.
2013-04-21 38 -121 [[[38,-121]]] I was out in Rancho Cordova anyway and saw that this hash was about 9 miles away. It was a really pretty, quiet spot at the back of a parking lot.
2013-09-27 38 -121[[[38,-121]]] Residential street in Lodi, CA.
2013-11-09 38 -121[[[38,-121]]] Posh ranchette neighborhood off of highway 12.
Not Attempted
2014-02-26 38 -120 [[[38,-120]]] - By the time I made it out of Lodi, it was rainy and windy, and, frankly, scary as hell out there. I chose to drive home directly, rather than test my luck trying to get onto a private property hash.
2014-01-09 37 -121[[[37,-121]]] Reasonably accessible, had I not been exceedingly tired. Home was in the opposite direction, so I did not visit this hash.
2013-10-08 37 -121 [[[37,-121]]] In my old neighborhood. I had a bike stripped and mostly stolen less than a block from here.
2013-09-09 38 -120 [[[38,-120]]] Foiled by my bronchitis-ridden husband.
2012-11-01 37 -120[[[Merced, California]]] This one was in a dairy effluent pit. Didn't go near it.
