Have you seen our geohashing marker? If you came here because you saw a sign, we'd love it if you would say "hi" and tell us what you've seen. Just click the + (plus) tab above. < return to the expedition page

Original discussion

I have baseball games at 11:30 and 2, so making the traditional meetup time is unlikely. Currently researching ferry schedules to figure out if before or after makes more sense. --Thomcat (talk) 10:44, 24 May 2013 (EDT)

If it ends up being early evening I may try to meet you... this would make an interesting bike hash... -- OtherJack (talk) 13:26, 24 May 2013 (EDT)

Bike geohash

I concur it would be a good bike hash, but as I have to work, impossible for me. If things went *very* quickly at baseball (roughly 5-10% of these tournament games) I could be on the 3:45 boat and arrive at 4:35 -- but arriving at 5:25 is really much more likely. --Thomcat (talk) 14:31, 24 May 2013 (EDT)

5:25 is fine, or even 6:20 or whenever it was. But later wouldn't be so good... should we say 5:25?

Best I can do is "time approximate after baseball", but will try for it. Will text an update once I'm at the ferry dock. This will be my first geohashing day hash. Be sure to bring your towel! --Thomcat (talk) 14:47, 24 May 2013 (EDT)

Geocache collision?
