Plans

Splitdipless

I have some work to do in Durham Region tonight, but afterwards I'll be making a late night stop-off to the point by car. Satellite images makes it look like the geohash is in a parking lot that I've been to before near Fort York. Should be a cake-walk.

Expedition

Splitdipless

I can't believe I actually forgot to go geohashing. I had a full tank of gas, I made this page ahead of time so the co-ordinates would be available and easy to put in my GPS, I had the time, albeit was after 10pm.

I had to stop at my parents' place in Oshawa to drop some things off and to pick some other things up. I was supposed to do that before I left the full time job to go to the part time job, but then I stayed too long at the full time job. So I went directly to the part time job and then to my parent's place around 9:30pm. After doing the exchange I started driving home, completely forgetting that I was supposed to go to Fort York instead of my Condo...

I got distracted by a bunch of sundry items. As much as it shames me, I think I shall forever after have to display a It's a Kitty!.

Consolation

Splitdipless earned the It's a kitty consolation prize

by being so distracted by sundry items as to forget to go to the (43, -79) geohash on 2010-10-29.
