All in all, the trip was extremely awesome!  I had a great time, and saw a whole lot of the country I have only seen from an airliner's window before.  And also saw some stuff that I likely have never even seen from an airliner window as well.  We also took an excursion to the Oregon coast, including Astoria, Seaside, Cannon Beach, and Tillamook, on 2009-09-07.  I decided that it is inappropriate to post all of the pictures on the wiki, when my trip had basically nothing to do with geohashing, other than that I moved to a new graticule.  I did decide, however, that I will post 2 pictures from each day, including to the coast.  The rest of the pictures can be located here: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/aperfectring?v=photos&ref=name
 +
 +
Geohashing count.  I got within 1 mile (1.6km) of five hashpoints, one of which was under 0.1km away.

This page details my cross-continent trip, which has little to do with geohashing, other than my relocation to a much better graticule.

2009-08-28

Beginning of day 1. tracklog kml

Pre Mission Mile 0

I had my apartment ransacked and packed my bags. I then went to work, and said my farewells for a couple hours before heading home. I then packed up the car, got myself coated in sweat, and turned in the keys to my apartment. We stopped to get gas and got on the road at about 2:30 PM or so.

Mission Mile 30

I had to call into a meeting for work, and proceeded to continue with this call until the next milestone.

Mission Mile 100

I had just gotten off the phone, and looked over at the console (my mom had been driving since I had to call in to the meeting), and saw the "Service Engine Soon" light was on. We proceeded to get off at the next exit so we could read the manual, and check some vitals of the vehicle, and ensured the gas cap was tight. Everything checked out to be OK, but the light was still on, and we couldn't find a service station nearby, so we proceeded down the highway a bit until we could find a service station. I then called my dad to get his advice, and he also suggested that we try to stop at a service station (it was now about 4:30 PM on a friday, so chances were slim).

Mission Mile 110

We got off on the exit to Vero Beach, Florida, and proceeded to Bobby's Auto Repair (Thank you garmin). The kind attendant there hooked the car up to the analyzation box, and determined that it was an oxygen sensor, and told us the car should be perfectly fine for the rest of the 4000 mile journey to Oregon. Huzzah! We switched drivers (to me driving), and continued on our way.

Mission Mile 200

We passed through a rain storm. (Of course when I am driving). It lasted about 10 minutes.

Mission Mile 260

End of day 1. We stopped at the Best Western in Palm Coast, Florida. We check in, and then go to Steak and Shake for dinner where I have a tasty frisco melt, cheese fries, and a mocha shake. Refuel.

We arrived at Castillo de San Marcos in St. Augustine, Florida. We took some pictures of the fort and the nearby lighthouse from the parking lot before continuing on to Savannah.

Mission Mile 470-480

Savannah, Georgia. We ate at Sweet Potatoes, where I had a pot roast with garlic mashed potatoes, which was very delicious. We then proceeded to refuel, and drive to the historic downtown. We stopped at the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, and walked through a few of the squares (parks) and through a couple of the old streets with historic houses. We then drove down to the waterfront, and along the main road by the water. We got lost in trying to leave the city. The GPS was being annoyingly difficult, so I pulled over in an abandoned parking lot until we got things sorted out.

Mission Mile 560

We stopped at a roadside shop specializing in ciders, sweetgrass baskets, and other Carolina-centric stuffs. We purchased some grape cider and chocolate coated pecans.

Mission Mile 600

We stopped in Charleston, South Carolina for a little while, looking at the coast, Fort Sumter, and the historic downtown. We walked and drove along various of the narrow downtown streets, looking at all the old houses.

Mission Mile 655

End of day 2. We end our day in Georgetown, South Carolina. We ate at a place called Dock House Tavern. The food was average, but huge portions.

All in all, the trip was extremely awesome! I had a great time, and saw a whole lot of the country I have only seen from an airliner's window before. And also saw some stuff that I likely have never even seen from an airliner window as well. We also took an excursion to the Oregon coast, including Astoria, Seaside, Cannon Beach, and Tillamook, on 2009-09-07. I decided that it is inappropriate to post all of the pictures on the wiki, when my trip had basically nothing to do with geohashing, other than that I moved to a new graticule. I did decide, however, that I will post 2 pictures from each day, including to the coast. The rest of the pictures can be located here: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/aperfectring?v=photos&ref=name

Geohashing count. I got within 1 mile (1.6km) of five hashpoints, one of which was under 0.1km away.
