Darcy currently lives in Fayetteville, Arkansas, but most of her geohashing was done in the Bay Area, while living in Berkeley. However, she is originally from Los Angeles and attended the very first meetup there. Looking forward to more in the future.

(Also, she doesn't actually own a handheld GPS unit. The car GPS is a poor substitute, sadly.)
