Expedition
Saturday afternoon we put on our geohashing boots and set out to find the target. On the way there we saw lots of empty corn fields and more than a few grain elevators. North of the target, across the road, was a quarry surrounded by "No Trespassing" signs and hidden from the road by a small man-made hill. I defied the law by climbing to the top of the hill and taking a picture. Afterwards, as no authorities appeared to prosecute my wickedness, we continued on to the geohash.
