About Me

Bienvenid@s. I'm a Spanish teacher and all-around communication(s) nerd based in the 36,-80 graticule. I don't hash frequently as I'm more of a convenience hasher--I'm not able to travel far out of my way, so I'm constantly lurking in wait of a nearby hashpoint. If you're in the area, let me know! It's lonely hashing by yourself sometimes.

  The Oak Ridge town hall and post office, right across from the park where the 2013-03-02_36_-79 hashpoint. Welcome to the heart of Oak Ridge.

  Me in my trusty car having stopped just past the 2013-02-24_35_-79 hashpoint (with some wild refraction c/o my window I guess)

• 

  I was trying to get a shot of the exit sign for better proof of location at the 2013-02-24_35_-79 hashpoint, but it didn't come out clear enough

  Somewhere in this (blurry) field was the 2012-11-24_35_-79 hashpoint.

• 

  Really nothing much to see here--a dark residential area at the 2012-05-15_36_-80 point--other than my absolutely rabid red-eye, which happens in almost every photo of me.
