Plans

I'm going to head to the hashpoint, and see what I find. - Jim


Expedition

I went. I found the field. I found the farmer owning the field. I wandered out into the field, dodging irrigation equipment. I found the ditch that feeds the irrigation equipment. So did the Algorithm.

I think I need a boat.

More info to follow. And news of successful geocaching.

Consolation prize

Jim earned the My kingdom for a boat consolation prize
by being prevented from reaching the (45, -123) geohash on 2009-07-19 by an impassable and unforeseen irrigation ditch.
