Plans

The plan is the leave work at 5pm,
Fight through the traffic,
And stop by the GeoHash on the way to the gym.
The only thing I see going wrong here is "gym" turning into some form of fast food.
But the gym isn't actually part of the GeoHash, so I expect this to be a success regardless of how much I eat.
This will be my first GeoHash.

Expedition

So...
I started at Starbucks so I could use there wifi and down load the GeoHash app and hopefully an app that would create a track log for my Nexus one.
No such luck.
My Nexus One has that odd issue out there where the power button stops working.
I downloaded an app that allows me to use the volume button in place of the power button, but it doesn't always work.
And I haven't have a chance to install CyanogenMod on it so I can use the wake from trackball mod.

Fortunately, due to my innate sense of direction,
And the copy of Google Maps I printed out because I was expecting this to happen,
I was still able to make it.
So I guess this means I get the No Batteries Geohash?
