hey Gareth, welcome to geohashing! Please tell us the story of your first geohash. Also, don't hesitate to ask if you need any help with wiki syntax. --joannac 01:49, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi! I'm so glad to see someone else geohashing in 42, -72, and my kids will be glad to know there's another child geohasher here. Maybe we'll meet some day. We could even set up an alternate meetup location some day somewhere around 42.075, -72.57 or 42.345, -72.69 Sara 15:58, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Gareth is 2008 ;) so probably not --joannac 00:39, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

thx

Thanks for the offer joanna, I was actually wondering if there are any page templates.

 Sara, we will both definitely be going out on sun and/or mon so keep an eye out for those, and msg 
 me if you are going to any. Gavin would definitely think its cool if there were other kids at a hash.

Hey Gareth, there sure are! Template:Expedition for expeditions reports or planning. Creating_a_Graticule_Page goes into templates for a graticule page. User pages are freeform, but have a look around for what other people have done with theirs, and some advice is here: Creating_a_User_Page. Or was there a template for something else you wanted? --joannac 02:24, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

An actual MEETUP in this graticule

We might be free Sun. 8/9, as long as we can get home by 4:30. I'll get in touch with you Friday when we know where the Sunday coordinates are. The problem is, although I'm sure you're a totally non-ax-murdering safe person, I wouldn't be doing my parenting due diligence if I told someone on the Internet that I had never met that I'm going alone with my two children to a specific set of coordinates in the middle of the woods at a certain time on a certain day. Maybe the first time we meet, we can meet at a public location and then proceed to the hashpoint. (That's why I suggested an alternate location for the first meetup at Forest Park or Look Park, or whatever is convenient for you, but I admit that that's not really geohashing.) Or maybe I'll throw caution to the winds and assume that you must be ok because your kid is cute. Or maybe I can convince my husband to come geohashing just once. Sara 03:34, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
