Expedition

Arrived. -- Sourcerer (talk) @52.4606,1.2545 16:15, 19 January 2014 (GMT)

This was about 12 miles from home and easily reached by car. The hashpoint was in a shallow drainage ditch beside a narrow country lane with agricultural land on both sites. The sun had just set and the sky was attractive. The temperature was 5C and tha air was still.

In October, Sourcerer paused his geohashing outings when his brother became ill and died. The illness turned out to be the late stages of cancer. Blood clotting caused his demise after about a month. Expeditions were resumed in late December after the funeral with two outings in Spain, the first in December near Malaga and the second in January 2014 in Granada.
