Katie Alice

Katie lives just southeast of Baltimore in the lovely town of Dundalk, MD. She enjoys music, stand-up comedy, going to shows for both, road trips, webcomics (obviously), epic/fantasy books and movies, NES games, math, linux, and other various forms of nerdery. She spends too much time on the internets, but has recently picked up bike riding again and is attempting to spend more time out-of-doors.

Graticules of Interest

In order of probability of attendance:

Baltimore, MD - Pretty much anywhere but the Eastern Shore
Washington, DC (West) - Northeastern area
Washington, DC (East) - Northwestern area
Frederick,_Maryland - Eastern area
Harrisburg,_Pennsylvania - Southern area
Salisbury, MD - Between Rehoboth and Ocean City, if it's a beach weekend
Philadelphia, PA (South) - Northwestern area

Points Reached

8/23/08 40,-76 (Harrisburg, PA graticule) - After minor trespassing in someone's front yard, we got delicious sandwiches at the 4 Brother's Tavern nearby.

8/16/08 39,-77 (Frederick, MD graticule) - It wasn't until *after* I fell in the stream that we discovered that the electric fence we were attempting to circumvent was actually dead.

6/14/08 38,-77 (Washington, DC (West) graticule) - We were chased inside a food court by threats of 60 mph winds and hail. (Lies!) We played games for a while, then wandered down the street to a pub. Good times!

-Katie is in the [[Baltimore, Maryland]] graticule at 39, -76. She hasn't gone on any geohash adventures yet, but is hoping that this Saturday will be her first! On Saturdays she plays kickball in College Park, so if one of the [[District_of_Columbia|Washington, DC]] geohashes is closer, she'll try to get to one of those instead.
