We have cousin Hannah visiting from Germany, and this was a chance to introduce her to geohashing. The girls had already been on a bike ride in the morning and displayed little enthusiasm for another, and we have an excuse to do car geohashes, as described in 2014-07-27 43 -85. So Katja drove us on this very easy 8-mile roundtrip.
We were rewarded with some blackberries.
