rabbitfox

This is rabbitfox. She is of the genus Doglefox and named after an old friend rabbitdog, and was the first of her kind in existence in the real world. She has been around the world with me and is now my geohashing mascot.

You can see pictures of rabbitfox and I hashing together here:

I've just discovered both geocaching and geohashing in July when looking for GPS applications for my new iPhone. I'm approaching 20 hashes and 100 caches!

Status: I've got my iPhone again, so back to geohashing/caching in full force.

upcoming hashes

• None planned

vague plans

• Displaced origin geohash for 1978-11-27 52,13 (map). Motzen, just south of Berlin. 1 hour train to Bestensee, 10km bike ride to Motzen, then a forest adventure.
• Birthday geohash, 2009-11-27 52 13
• Hashiversary geohash, 2010-08-08 52 13
• A horse hash.
• A hobbit hash.

Technical/wiki stuff is on my TODO list.
