It was near the Google Maps dot for his town, but I didn't realize how close it had come until he replied.

Location

Today's geohash is in a parking lot near Oakford, just off I31.

Participants

  • Qunchuy
  • Qunchuy's father
  • Qunchuy's niece

Planning

Robyn has been trying to convince Qunchuy to geohash for a while. He liked the idea, except that he said he doesn't participate in forums and wiki. Robyn e-mailed him today's location, and thought she had achieved a puppet master but then discovered that a) Qunchuy had planned to visit this geohash before Robyn e-mailed him and b) that this was his second successful geohash, thoroughly disqualifying this so-called puppet hash. Yay for a new geohash!

Expedition

It's a church parking lot. It's a half mile from my parents' house, visible across the field when the corn isn't too tall. I picked up my father and my niece this morning (two of my sister's kids are visiting from Chicago this weekend) and we went over. Church was just getting out, so the parking lot was starting to empty. The actual coordinates seemed to be in the middle of a handicapped parking spot occupied by a car, so we walked around the car and counted it as a success.

Photographs

Photograph soon.
