I'm an instrument-rated private pilot. I may have to dust off the old license in order to effectively make some of these meetups, given the private-property nature of the several I've tried recently.

I typically bring Once Upon A Time as my game.

Geohash meetups attempted

2008-05-24_37_-121 (xkcd) [SCUW] Inadvertently went to the 5/23 location. It was behind private property, inaccessible. Met some very nice ranchers.

2008-05-31_37_-121 (xkcd) [SCUW] Was behind private property, inaccessible. Nearby cafe also closed.
