A little bit about me

I learned about Geohashing on December 31, 2008. And attempted my first hash two days later. My job as a science teacher severely limits my opportunities to wonder around. At any rate, I'll attempt as many hashes as I can try to keep readers entertained.

PS: My brothers are also in this ( Woodveil ). They beat me getting started.

Successful Geohashes (2)

On 2009-06-15. The second hash ever to be reached in the Jacksonville graticule.

Unsuccessful Geohashes (5)

	On 2009-02-28. Attempt number five. Check it.
	On 2009-02-22. My fourth attempt. The hash looked good. Success seemed within reach. Check it out.
	On 2009-01-25. My third attempt. The hash should be reachable, but still no success. Click and read my dramatic tale.
	On 2009-01-18. Two weeks since my last attempt, I now have a simple GPS and some time on my hands. The hash was close and appears to be reachable. Click and see what went wrong.
	On 2009-01-02. Being very interested in completing a geohash before having to go back work I checked the coordinates right at 9:30 EST. It was only six miles away. And in a location that I thought would be easily accessible. How did it end up? Click and see.

-I learned about Geohashing on December 31, 2008. And attempted my first hash two days later. My job as a science teacher severely limits my opportunities to wonder around. I am also limited by distance being on a teacher's salary and not will to spend money on gas that could be spent on "decent" food. At any rate, I'll attempt as many hashes as I can try to keep readers entertained.
