Expedition 1

It's Saturday morning, I wake up, grab my phone and check the next three days of coordinates. An accessible geohash in Melbourne and pretty close to my house. But my geohashing chat hasn't gone off with excitement, so I must be missing something. I post and am surprised that no one else appears to have looked yet.

I plan to get it on my to way or from the weekend shopping run. On my way, there is a car parked in the driveway, as I need to sneak past it right up the the edge of the house and garage, I decide to see what the situation is like on my return home. The return trip is more successful, the car is gone. I roll up onto the footpath and park the cargo bike, quickly sneak up, grab the all essential screenshot (zoomed out for some reason) and carry on home.

Expedition 2

hat good fortune - a hash near where I work and being partnered with my best friend, so taking an ambulance to a geohash might actually finally happen. While Tanja thought my nerdy excitement was weird, she was a good sport and agreed to do an ambulance geohash with me. Now we just had to not get a job. With anticipation and excitement (me) we drove the short distance to the location while I prayed to the ambulance gods to leave us alone long enough to get the geohash. Luck was on our side. I was able to quickly get the hash while Tanja laughed her arse off at me from the truck. Here's to many more geohashes with ambulances! 🚑 Time of hash: 11:57am.
