Local Geohashers

Paul, Richmonder when school is out, can't think of anything better to do on Saturday then drive to some random location and hang out with other similiarly bored people. Might be working though...

Blaine, living in Southside this summer, could get into this.

James, real-life friend of Randall's since middle school, will try and make it Saturdays at 4 as long as it's not terribly far from Richmond-proper, using Ashland & Petersburg as rough north-south boundary points.

Andrew, from Short Pump, is going to give this a shot on saturday if he can convince his friends to come too.

Tyler, also from Short Pump, might do this since he could use the practice on his new bike. He will also will be working, though.

stepol (and their kids) from the Central Virginia Geocaching Association made a Memorial Day run to the Shady Grove location.

Julie is less adventurous than most xkcd people, and will gamely try to get there on Saturdays when not too much trespassing is required. Shoofle is often her companion.

Upcoming Geohashing Proposals

Tyler is wondering why most of the locations are near the edges of the map, far away from people.

Paul wonders the same thing! and has therefore decided that the meeting spot should be in the rocks right off Belle Isle. Go check out the map if you are into that. He will not, however, show up, because he had to work. Sorry folks.

James is going to try and convince Randall to come on Saturday, and shall head for Belle Isle as per Paul's suggestion: 37.53014861,-77.45464325

Successful Geohashes

Randall comes to visit our humble graticule

2008 6-14: Peter read the blag and met up with Randall and Doug on Belle Island downtown since Aylett is a bit too far away. There was a kayak competition going on, and swimming was had by all despite nobody thinking to bring a swimsuit. Alternate meetup site = success. Pictures here

2008 5-31: Shoofle and Julie met up with Paul in Suffolk County Saturday afternoon for a nice visit and some time kicking around a soccer ball. We didn't get to exactly the right spot, but it was close enough. Pictures here
