Participant
Expedition
After 7 years of inaction in this graticule (and 4 years of general inaction, oops) I'm back where it all started. While visiting parents for a summer holiday I got out my old bike from the garage (it's the same one I've been using 7 years ago to get my previous hash) to check the old routes I used to frequent when living here. I even found a geohashing point close enough, so I decided to give it a try. I was surprised to see the countryside change a lot during the past few years - there is a lot of new bicycle routes and a lot of nearby villages no longer look like open-air museums but are now full of expensive looking villas. I enjoyed the ride a lot, made 35 km, visited few very Polish-sounding villages (can you pronounce Rożdżałów, anyone? :D), saw some XVI century castle ruins just under 1 km from the geo-point (which in turn was not really interesting, in some random field, luckily recently trampled by some heavy machinery, so there was an easy access without me being guilty of destroying it). I have returned trough some more fields, saw a lot of storks, some lizards, a pheasant, a hare and a lot of butterflies. In short - I'm glad to try geohashing again and I hope the next time will be sooner than in another few years!
