This is me! Now living in Arlington, Virginia, I've been geohashing on and off since high school. I usually go when I'm on road trips so I can see some of the back roads of the countryside I pass through, although I'll also go if the hashpoint is very close to my home. An interactive map of my expeditions is available at [https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1J67oQViRbUrKmkgApb2L_IwHEms88qc8&hl=en this link] .
