About

I attempted the Atlanta Geohash location at about 2pm local time. I was trying to do it at lunch time since I didn't have a bicycle today and drove my truck all the way to work. I made it as far as Douglasville Georgia. That took about 45 minutes. Since I do put in an above average amount of hours at work, I can take as long as I like for lunch. But, since I was little more than half way, taking 3 hours for lunch was out of the question.

I knew that this graticule was an option since I was heading east to go home. When I got back to work from lunch, I check the the map for this graticule and knew that I had to make it.
