Revision as of 19:24, 8 July 2009

Pre-planning note

Looks like I can't take the entire day off work after all; currently, looks like the earliest I can leave will be around noon, maybe 14:00. I think I may opt for designating an alternate along the way to the hash, or something like that, if the coordinates aren't reachable from an afternoon departure. - Elbie 00:28, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Wade says he'll go if it's in Yaletown. Wade is a very enthusiastic geohasher, as you know. -Robyn 02:16, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
It's not exactly Yaletown, but I can make it anyway. --Wade 14:34, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Location query

Somebody's back yard, got that. What is that to the west of that? Some sort of massive solar farm? --Thomcat 14:18, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Agricultural greenhouse. Vancouver doesn't have solar farms. We have the same weather as you. -Robyn 15:04, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
It is a solar farm. It just produces biomass instead of electricity.  :-) Jiml 19:21, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
LOL - Hope you guys had a good geohash. I wish I could have gone, but today was right out. --Thomcat 03:43, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Too late...

Doesn't look like I'm going to make it. Heading back after 8, closer to 9 if successful, will have me getting home close to midnight. Don't like doing that too many times in a week. Sorry... -- Rhonda 20:09, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

No worries. Do you get off work earlier that 17:00? If so, we could push the times up sooner. - Elbie 20:46, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
Well, it's a combination of getting home late and having something else I wanted to do this evening. Work has actually been intermittent the last few days so I could have maybe made a daytime attempt, but that would not let me meet up with everybody who had to work. -- Rhonda 20:52, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
