I'm an instrument-rated private pilot. I may have to dust off the old license in order to effectively make some of these meetups, given the private-property nature of the several I've tried recently.

I typically bring Once Upon A Time as my game. Starting with June 1, 2008, I'm going to try to bring a small, unobtrusive marker to place, too.

Geohash meetups attempted

2008-05-24_37_-121 (xkcd) [SCUW] Inadvertently went to the 5/23 location. It was behind private property, inaccessible. Met some very nice ranchers.
2008-05-31_37_-121 (xkcd) [SCUW] Was behind private property, inaccessible. Nearby cafe also closed.
* (xkcd) = Saturday, official xkcd meetup @ 4pm
* SCUW = Santa Cruz spot under water.

Geohash meetups attended

2008-06-01_37_-121 [SCUW] Made it! Only minor trespassing -- "barely noticeable!" Met some fine folk...
